Peter Singer

Journalists have bestowed on Peter the tag of “world’s most influential living philosopher.” They are probably thinking of his work on the ethics of our treatment of animals, often credited with starting the modern animal rights movement, and with the influence that his writing has had on the development of effective altruism. He is also known for the controversial critique of the sanctity of life ethics in bioethics.
