Review
I thoroughly recommend this book which has something for everyone interested in animal welfare. Entertainment Law ... the author writes in a style which is clear and informative and succeeds in providing a broad overview of animal protection law and highlighting the areas of weakness. Entertainment Law Throughout his work [Radford] makes a strong case for the need to reform the law in this area to reflect the change in attitudes towards animals by society and scientists over the last few decades. Entertainment Law ... grealy welcomed in an area largely overlooked by writers ... there must be a growing market for a readable text aimed not only at lawyers, but also at those who either work in an animal welfare area or who just have an interest in animal welfare in Britain. Entertainment Law ... much needed and long-awaited erudite publication ... a brilliant exposition of the complicated legal status of animals. The Institute of Animal Technology Bulletin
