ARZone Podcast 33: Philosopher David Pearce
David Pearce is without doubt a controversial figure within the animal advocacy movement. He is a British negative utilitarian and transhumanist philosopher and author of the online text calling for the end of suffering for all sentient life, The Hedonistic Imperative.
In 2002, David Pearce co-founded the Abolitionist Society, which has "Towards the abolition of suffering through science" as its subtitle. Pearce is the author of "The Abolitionist Project" (which includes a 34 minute podcast) which is about "getting rid of suffering."
