Loving Animals is a book by Gresham College historian Joanna Bourke, released in 2020. It contains an overview of Western treatment of zoophilia and bestiality, explores how we approach the concept of sexual abuse as a society, and introduces some zoophile points of view. She presents each side in their own words, using juxtaposition more than interpretation.
