Description:
There has been a recent explosion of active concern in matters of
animal welfare. The science behind animal welfare has progressed
significantly, new codes of practice and legislation have come into
to being, and innovative methods to assess welfare schemes for food
production have emerged.
Part of a major animal welfare series, Animal Welfare: Limping
Towards Eden is John Webster?s new and groundbreaking work on
animal welfare. Building on his first book, the highly acclaimed
Animal Welfare: A Cool Eye Towards Eden, it not only critically
reviews areas of development, but looks to how animal welfare can
be improved in the future.
Special consideration is given to:
Defining animal welfare (?fit and happy?) and
establishing a systematic approach for its evaluation (the
?five freedoms?);
Providing a sound ethical framework that affords proper
respect to animals within the broader context of our duties as
citizens to the welfare of society;
Developing comprehensive, robust protocols for assessing
animal welfare and the provisions that constitute good
husbandry;
Introducing an education policy that will increase human
awareness of animal welfare problems and promote action to reduce
suffering.
This book is part of the
UFAW/Wiley-Blackwell Animal Welfare Book Series. This major
series of books produced in collaboration between UFAW (The
Universities Federation for Animal Welfare), and Wiley-Blackwell
provides an authoritative source of information on worldwide
developments, current thinking a

A guide for prayer relevant today
Format: Paperback
Though written in the 16th century, this book is so direct, speaking of the issues of parenting, prayer, and our relationship with God, as if the author were alive today. The examples she gives are so human, and so direct. Do you pray in church, or do you fall into the temptation of looking who is there around you? What other temptations do you give into that take you AWAY from prayer? Do you know how easy it is to falter in prayer? St. Teresa will help you not feel like a failure. There are times you should simply not pray ("no water in the well"), and in those cases, St. Teresa suggests to read a good book. Lots of good books - and hers is a perfect way to start. She is helping me pray, but when I am having a dry spell, she is helping me not fall away from God.

......................COINCIDENCE?…I was on page 130 when my husband
of 43 yrs kissed me good by, walked out the door, fell down -& never got up. His last words to me when I tried to help him up were " I'm ok".
The paramedics worked on him for over an hour but never got a pulse. He died less than 5' from me -but, I couldn't even hold his hand.
He'd converted to Catholism but, became a Catholic without a church; like me!
Why I chose this book is still beyond me......especially of this Saint; we'd been to her shrine, in Spain, yrs ago. I'd found it
'too much'… the relics (a finger) -as I remember it struck me as wrong.
On that same trip, we went to Fatima; my husband told me he just knew something special had happened here when we visited the shrine & the small statue of Our Lady of Fatima. I,
(the Catholic, raised by devote parents & nuns in school) who really wanted to feel the same -didn't.
It is 3wks. since his death.
Maybe, I'm just still numb.
We were 24/7 for over 43 yrs. (we had a business- then retired & traveled - we had a wonderful life) BUT…
How could I live now...without him? And Why?
I waited for a 'breakdown'… for his loss to hit me. I felt waves of grief, that were physical -go through me for a few days; but, no great sobbing of tears.
The only explanation I have (& I thank God for it) is that I do feel him with me still, in my heart/soul. My daily prayer is that I never feel That loss. (being the cynic that I am, I can not begin to express what this means to me) It is so real a presence & comfort!
And, 'for the record', the very first call I made was to the church we weren't going to. (In 'my' day, if you weren't in 'good standing' you didn't get a funeral Mass.) We got a it and were welcomed!
My Faith, is still pathetically weak. Father told me to offer my grief as sacrifice. I'm trying.

Very thoughtful, encouraging, and personal reflection of her life
St. Teresa’s personal reflection of her life brought me a clearer light and understanding of her other more theological writings. What impressed me most was how she revealed her own many short comings and failures despite the great graces she received. This was a real encouragement to me in my own journey toward becoming a saint.

Illustrated ?
The content of the book is well worth reading. The claim that it is "illustrated" borders on dishonesty. There are 14 thumbnail photos, none of which have anything to do with the life of Teresa of Avila. However, it was worth $0.99 (for the Kindle version).

Great Inspiration
Format: Paperback
I love this book so much. If you want to be inspired to feel God's presence in your life, this book does it for me. I love her story and the way she writes. I find her wit very amusing at times. Here's one. "It seems the Lord not only wanted my soul, but my body as well as he began to lift it off the ground -- and at the most inopportune times."
