Jessica Ison is senior lecturer and Deputy Director of the Reducing Gender-Based Violence Research Group at La Trobe University.

In this original, accessible, and engaging text, Jessica Ison places queer and animal liberation movements and theory side by side, asking critical questions about their entanglements, history, and potential horizons. Examining diverse contemporary topics such as commodification and consumerism, sexuality and the law, and the visibility of mourning, Queer and Animal Provocations offers an incisive exploration of the politics of queer sexuality and oppression amidst the context of mass scale human violence against animals.
