Description

The Bond: Our Kinship with Animals, Our Call to Defend Them is Humane Society President Wayne Pacelle's first book. It is a compassionate, insightful, and comprehensive examination of our special connection to all creatures, written by one of America's most important champions of animal welfare. Pacelle will discuss the themes in the book and issues of local, national and international impact at the San Jose Animal Care Center.

In the book, Pacelle unveils the deep links of the human–animal bond, as well as the conflicting impulses that have led us to betray this bond through widespread and systematic cruelty to animals. During a quarter–century of leadership, most of it at the HSUS, Pacelle has become America’s foremost voice for those who cannot speak in their own defense, and has helped to bring animal protection from the margins to the mainstream.
