Animal Edutainment in a Neoliberal Era
"Teresa Lloro's new book, Animal Edutainment in a Neoliberal Era, is a welcome and needed addition to the works on the uses of animals in two spheres: entertainment and education. Drawing on the author's ethnographic work among the people and animals who interact at a public aquarium, Animal Edutainment in a Neoliberal Era uncovers a number of uncomfortable truths inherent in our use of animals, and suggests some new ways in which we might move forward."—Margo De Mello, Human-Animal Studies Program Director, Animals & Society Institute
