leading conscience keeper of global society
“In the field of animal law, Barbara Gislason is an inspiration who, with her unrelenting commitment, has inspired a large number of human beings, not just law persons, to grasp the truth about animal life and the respect that animal life demands from each one of us.
Barbara had the distinction of being the first Chair of the Animal Law Committee of the ABA and its success goes to her credit. Under the guidance of Barbara, this website would be of immense help and assistance to all those who intend to unravel and learn about the cruelties that man inflicts on animals and also, the inadequacy of existing laws which seek to check such practices, in the field of science, entertainment, nutrition, working animals amongst others. The website can easily be counted amongst the leading conscience keepers of global society.”
