Regarding Animals
Provided a perspective the inconsistencies in how humans treat animals and explores the question of how we came to hold these opposing views in tandem. An enjoyable read with a good balance of sociological analysis and personal stories.
I'd recommend it to animal welfare activists as a way to show how inconsistent we are with our treatment of animals (think along the veins of "Why do we love our pet dogs, put then eat pigs for dinner?", though it surprisingly never does mention that omnivorous inconsistency). It explores many aspects of our human interactions with animals (kill shelters, zoos, pets, research labs, etc), and I think it provides many places to start a discussion.
