An elegant manifesto for improving life―and death―for all beings on sacred Mother Earth
"If there is one book you choose to read about how to enjoy and improve your relationships with animals and fully appreciate who they truly are, this is the one."
― MARC BEKOFF, author of
The Emotional Lives of Animals
and other books; Professor emeritus of ecology and evolutionary biology at the University of Colorado, Boulder
Combining humorous anecdotes and thought-provoking research,
Sacred Sendoffs
explores human relationships with beloved pets, wild creatures, animal astronauts, marine life, farmed animals, and other sentient beings. Along the way, animal chaplain Sarah Bowen shares insights for sustaining their lives, honoring deaths, and managing the emotions that arise when we lose an animal we love. While many books focus exclusively on pet loss, animal welfare, or environmental issues, Bowen’s ever curious and playful style takes on all three, revealing their unavoidable entanglement.
helps animal lovers uncover practical actions and everyday opportunities for helping the more-than-human world thrive.
“Bowen covers a great deal of ground here, creating a new paradigm for thinking about the way we treat our closest companions and fellow beings. And she offers hope for the future, reminding us that learning to value animals in life and death may be the first step toward saving our beloved planet.”
