'This remarkable book provides a one-stop-shop on why animal welfare matters to the corporate world and what can be done about it. It provides vital understanding and practical insight that will help companies manage the reputational and investment risks associated with the farmed animals in their supply chain. It will also help meet the expectations of customers who increasingly want to know that companies are taking proper care of animal welfare. I cannot recommend this book highly enough.'Philip Lymbery, Chief Executive, Compassion in World Farming
