—Jane Goodall

“The Bond is the best overall book on animals I have ever read. Brilliant and moving.”

The president and CEO of the Humane Society of the United States, the world’s largest animal protection organization, Wayne Pacelle brings us The Bond, a heartfelt, eye-opening exploration of the special bond between animals and humans. With the poignant insight of Animals Make Us Human and the shocking reality of Fast Food Nation—filled with history, valuable insights, and fascinating stories of the author’s experience in the field—The Bond is an important investigation into all the ways we can repair our broken bond with the animal kingdom and a thrilling chronicle of one man’s extraordinary contribution to that effort.

An inspiring must read for all animal lovers

The Bond is a must read for all animal lovers and stewards of the environment. The beautifully written book serves to educate the reader on the vast array of domestic and wild animal welfare issues that exist in the world, and the implications of that abuse and neglect not only on those creatures, but on our public health and the environment as well. I was surprised to learn that the Humane Society campaigns for just about every animal welfare concern out there; everything from agriculture farm animal welfare, to ethical hunting practices. This book inspired me to begin taking a much more Active role in helping animals live the lives they deserve. A wonderful read!
