Peter Singer

Peter Singer is frequently described as the world's most influential living philosopher, and few thinkers have reshaped public morality so directly. His 1975 book Animal Liberation gave the modern animal movement its founding argument, and his writing on global poverty became a cornerstone of effective altruism. An Australian utilitarian and Emeritus Professor of Bioethics at Princeton, he is also the author of Practical Ethics and The Life You Can Save. He was photographed in Melbourne for Portraits of Philosophers, published by Platonic Press.
