SEXISM IS A SIN, by Rev. Janet Regina Hyland.

THE FORGOTTEN BEGINNINGS OF CREATION AND CHRISTIANITY, by Carl Anders Skriver. The author was an Evangelical Lutheran Priest, an ethical vegetarian, and a German citizen who resisted Nazi rule and was arrested in 1943. He survived imprisonment to continue his lifelong commitment to the inner reform of Christianity. A recognized scholar, he emphasized the teachings of nonviolence proclaimed by Jesus Christ and the Latter Prophets, and drew a parallel between the killing of animal beings and the killing of human beings. Available from the VEGETARIAN PRESS, P.O. Box 61273, Denver, CO 80206. Paperback, 175 pages. $14.45 postpaid.

THEY SHALL NOT HURT OR DESTROY, by Vasu Murti. This is THE comprehensive reference work that documents the writings of mainstream religious and spiritual leaders who, from antiquity, have taught that compassion and kindness must mark our relationship with nonhuman as well as human beings. The author also reviews the observations of secular spokespersons, past and present, who through the centuries have championed the cause of compassion for animals, and for their rights as fellow beings. Available from VASU MURTI, 30 Villanova Lane, Oakland, CA 94611. P-Comb Binding, 200 pages. $20.00 postpaid.
