“This volume brings a useful and sophisticated perspective on how the psychophysical wellbeing of invertebrates should be considered, managed and accomplished. When people think of animal welfare, mammals, maybe birds, spring to mind. We do not think of invertebrates, as we seldom consider they are deserving of welfare attention. This book tells us that we should.” (Enrico Alleva and Daniela Santucci, Animal Behaviour, Vol. 167, September, 2020)
