Divided into three sections, the book first looks at the fashion system's entrenched use of animal-based materials in garment production. Section two explores pathways to kinder, next-generation materials that break away from animal exploitation. The final section advocates for a complete reimagining of fashion through a lens of empathy and respect for all beings. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFeaturing practices and ideas from around the globe and with views from philosophers, animal rights activists, scientists and artists intersecting with designers, stylists, companies and consumers, this book inspires a shift towards a sustainable future that respects life in all its forms.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Simona Segre-Reinach\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Visual Arts\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/17\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSeries:\u003c\/b\u003e Fashion in Action\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 144\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.70h x 5.00w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781350449176","brand":"Bloomsbury Visual Arts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48296510357641,"sku":"9781350449176","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_f005e32d-101a-41b8-976a-e286d8289b42.jpg?v=1788841551","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/animal-9781350449176","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
