This book explores the role, impact and experiences of animals within organisations and the wider socioeconomic contexts in which they participate.Animals are vital to business. From agriculture to tourism, logistics to digital media, animals work, reproduce, create value and support livelihoods. Yet business and management theory still largely treats organisations as purely human domains. Animals and Business challenges this view. By introducing an interspecies approach to responsible management, the book explores how animals are not just resources or external ethical concerns, but key actors within organisations and industries. It examines how business practices shape animals' lives and how, in turn, animals influence how value is created and sustained. Each chapter takes an animal-centred approach to a familiar idea such as work, consumption and innovation. Case studies range from broiler chickens in global supply chains to bees in forest honey economies and medical scent-detection dogs in Nordic healthcare. Developed in dialogue with international scholars, the book's central claim is simple: Business is better understood, and better practised, when we recognise the animals whose lives and labour are intertwined with it.This book is essential reading for students and researchers working at the intersection of business studies, animal studies and sustainability.

Routledge International Focus on Death and Funeral Practices

This book provides a clear and comprehensive introduction to the past, present, and future direction of death rituals and deathcare systems within Japan.As Japan heads toward a precarious future shaped by its super-ageing society, secularisation, and economic stagnation, the socioreligious structures that once organised death and funeral practice are becoming increasingly unstable. In their place, new social structures, technologies, and rituals for the farewell of the dead, handling of cremains, and commemoration of the ancestors have begun to emerge. The work is informed by the authors' extensive research within Japan's funeral, cemetery, and memorialisation sectors and the latest Japanese data sources and academic publications, many of which are not currently available in English.Providing readily accessible and contextualising information, this book will be an essential reference for graduate students and academics, as well as international policymakers and deathcare practitioners.

MORE THAN HALF A MILLION COPIES SOLD - NOW WITH NEW PREFACE BBC Radio 4 BOOK OF THE WEEK 'A major influence on my own thinking' CAL NEWPORT 'Essential reading' OBSERVER 'Rush to your bookshop' MAIL ON SUNDAY Almost everyone complains about the hectic pace of modern life. Our culture preaches that faster is better - yet all this rushing takes a toll. Carl Honoré uncovers a global movement that challenges the cult of speed by proving that slowing down can help us lead richer, more productive lives. The Slow movement is not about doing everything at a snail's pace: it is about striking a balance between fast and slow in order to thrive in a world of chronic impatience and instant gratification. A seminal book, In Praise of Slow is as relevant today as it was when it was first published. There has never been a better time to embrace the surprising power of slow.

*A Radio 4 Book of the Week*'Captivating, mind-boggling and deeply disturbing' - Maureen Freely'Humane, thoughtful and urgent - this book will make you think, make you laugh, make you cry, but also make you burn with rage' - Dr Mary WellesleyA thought-provoking deep dive into the global fertility industry and the commodification of the maternal body__________Should surrogacy be a paid service, an altruistic act - or even legal at all?Is it right that you can pay more for 'VIP' egg donors - and to view their photos?How much, if anything, should breastmilk cost - and who should be allowed to buy it?The global fertility industry is rapidly growing, hugely profitable and morally complex. This an industry where one person's biological bad luck can be another person's financial gain. From egg freezing to black-market breastmilk, the maternal body has never been more commodified, yet the ethical, emotional and economic implications are rarely considered.Through a combination of undercover reporting and detailed first-hand accounts Alev Scott exposes how the IVF, surrogacy and milk industries operate around the world and who is profiting. In doing so, she considers the blurred line between exploitation and empowerment. Who should make money from the maternal body: only the women themselves, anyone or no one?Timely, thought-provoking and compelling, Cash Cow is an unmissable investigation into how desire, desperation and commerce intersect, and the impact the fertility industry has on individuals.__________'A powerful, intimate and disturbing exploration of the hidden markets built on women's bodies' Professor Peter Frankopan'An absolute must read for anyone considering surrogacy; a compelling and thought-provoking book for everyone else' Jack Farchy, co-author of The World for Sale

Routledge Studies in Contemporary Philosophy

This volume features new essays on the application, justification, and role of naturalism in philosophical inquiry. It serves as an important update on current controversies about naturalism.The contributors include leading figures who have written on naturalism and its relevance to a wide range of issues across philosophical subdisciplines. The chapters discuss how naturalism can be properly employed in different philosophical areas such as epistemology, metaphysics, philosophy of mind, philosophy of language, philosophy of religion, philosophy of time, philosophy of science, philosophy of mathematics, philosophy of memory, cognitive science, ethics, meta-ethics, and normativity.Naturalism and Its Challenges will be of interest to scholars and advanced students working in a wide range of philosophical disciplines.

Naturalism and Its Challenges

The 'fresh start' that is afforded individual debtors through the discharge doctrines of American bankruptcy law has, to date, defied justification by a single normative principle or theoretical paradigm. The justificatory accounts that have been advanced either fail to explain core doctrines that have long defined the right of discharge or invite theoretical challenges that suggest that their descriptive virtues are swamped by their normative or conceptual shortcomings. 

This book presents a taxonomy of traditional justifications of bankruptcy and subjects them to critical evaluation. It then seeks to offer a new justification of bankruptcy's 'fresh start' doctrines-one that takes its inspiration from a quite different moral tradition than those that have informed past efforts to justify and explain our enduring societal willingness to release people from onerous financial obligations. The book argues that personal debt relief is fully vindicated not by a utilitarian theory, nor by a distributive justice theory, nor by a retributive theory, nor by any other rights- or duties-based theory that is preoccupied with moral claims that particular creditors or debtors might proffer. Rather, the long-standing institution of discharge in bankruptcy is best explained by an aretaic, or virtue-based, theory that concerns itself with the obligations that the rest of us have to be charitable towards those who are unable to repay their debts. 

The fresh start that bankruptcy gives to those who have been shackled by overwhelming debt is justified not by its effects on creditors, debtors, or future market actors, but by its satisfaction of the demands of individual charity to which all citizens are subject. Bankruptcy's discharge of the debts of those who have become financially desperate is best thought to be an institution that aggregates others' demands of good character so as to permit citizens for whom debt-forgiveness is a personal virtue to live in a society that fulfils that virtue.
