The book "The Status of the Animal..." is the result of research conducted by the Faculty of Law at the University of Social Sciences and Humanities in Warsaw since 2010. This issue, also referred to as animal protection law, has significant intrinsic importance. It is now even more significant as considerations regarding the status of animals are closely linked to the developing, along with the progress of ecological thought, general reflection on the relationship between humans and nature. Animals are a special part of it, in various ways closest to humans, yet also very internally differentiated.

This book is an excellent proposition for those interested in both the topic of animal status and more general ecological issues, considered from the perspective of human responsibility for their natural environment. The authors raise difficult questions about moral obligations towards animals and their place in society. This publication is a valuable contribution to the discussion on environmental ethics and animal rights.

Adam Marszałek Publishing House presents a publication that will surely encourage reflection on our relationship with animals and the world around us. This book is not only a collection of scientific analyses but also an inspiration to act for the improvement of the fate of animals and the protection of the natural environment. We recommend it to all who wish to expand their knowledge of animal rights and environmental ethics.
