Doctor Josh Milburn's book, Just Fodder: The ethics of feeding animals (McGill-Queen's University Press), explores a variety of questions from “Who are we obliged to feed? Who are we permitted to feed? What are we allowed to feed animals? To What is the role of the state in feeding animals? And How might obligations concerning the feeding of animals differ from obligations concerning the feeding of humans and why?

These are thought provoking questions and this book really pushed me to consider things in ways I just wasn’t expecting.

Josh is a moral and political philosopher interested in questions about human/animal relationships, food, liberal/libertarian political theory, and applied ethics. He’s a Lecturer in Political Philosophy at Loughborough University and a member of the Research Advisory Committee of the Vegan Society. Josh is the host of the animal studies podcast Knowing Animals, which is streaming on all platforms.
