Outspoken vegetarian Paul McCartney and Anita Roddick, CEO of the Body Shop, who has refused to test her cosmetic products on animals, are both interviewed in Speaking Out for Animals: True Stories about Real People Who Rescue Animals, a collection of pieces on animal rights activists collected from the magazine Animals' Agenda, edited by Kim W. Stallwood, with a foreword by Jane Goodall. This inspiring book features both people who have used their celebrity or economic clout to advocate for animals and private individuals from around the world who have made an effort, in their own small way, to save animals from harm or death.
