“What one generation finds ridiculous, the next accepts; and the third shudders when it looks back on what the first did.”
What does it really mean to be a good person? What is the value of a good deed? Is it even important to be good in a world that constantly rewards bad people?
They’re important questions that are becoming harder to answer, especially as we enter a post-Trump and (hopefully) post-COVID world. If you’re kept up at night wrestling with these thoughts, we’ve got the cure for what ails you – Think Inc. proudly presents An Evening with Peter Singer.
Once labelled “the most dangerous man in the world”, Peter’s arguments are founded on a simple idea – utilitarianism; a theory that states the most ethical choice, in any situation, is the one that provides the greatest good for the greatest number.
This concept underpins all of Peter’s work, and was the basis for his 2009 seminal book The Life You Can Save – a manual so influential that it inspired the global Effective Altruism movement, and was lauded by Bill and Melinda Gates!
He’s also responsible for the revolutionary Animal Liberation: A New Ethics for Our Treatment of Animals – a book that’s universally regarded as the philosophical foundation of the animal rights movement, moving millions to adopt vegetarianism and veganism.
It’s no wonder he’s considered the world’s most influential living philosopher! Sure, today the idea of a meat-free diet is mainstream, but when Peter wrote Animal Liberation back in 1975, the concept was considered straight up weird. He’s been ahead of the curve on so many issues, not only forecasting modern attitudes, but helping shape them as well.
A vocal proponent of voluntary euthanasia and abortion, controversially campaigning for their legalisation since the 70’s, Peter has faced much backlash over his ideas, and yet has always stood steadfastly by what he believes is right.
Today, his ideas need to be amplified greatly. If we had fought against the immoral and unnecessary institutional cruelty imposed on animals for their meat, we may have avoided the COVID-19 crisis altogether. If global populations adopted the tenets of utilitarianism, polarising figures like Trump may never have found office.
Peter is an intellectual heavyweight and we are thrilled to be touring him around Australia and New Zealand. He will be live on stage speaking to audiences in Melbourne, Brisbane, Sydney and Auckland in April 2021.
Come and learn how to apply ethics to your everyday life, make the greatest impact you can on society, and gain insight into the mind of the world’s most influential philosopher.
All net proceeds from the tour will be donated to Peter’s non-profit, high impact philanthropy organisation The Life You Can Save, in an effort to alleviate global poverty. Also, everyone who attends will receive a copy of his book of the same name – great, right?

Testimonials
If I have to pick the book that had the most impact on me, I would say Peter Singer’s Animal Liberation, since I instantly became a vegetarian after reading it...
I can still remember how I felt when I closed Singer’s book. I thought about the delicious pork chops that I loved, the heavenly smell of frying bacon in the morning. And all the roast chicken, casseroled chicken, fried chicken, and chicken soup that I had enjoyed during my life…
When I saw meat on my plate, from that moment on, I should think of pain-fear-death. How horrible. And so it was clear. I would eat no more meat.

Philosophers, notoriously, are an ivory-towered lot. One philosopher who has never fit that mold is the Australian Peter Singer.
Indeed, he has probably had a larger popular readership than any professional philosopher since Bertrand Russell, and more success in effecting changes in acceptable behavior.

... [your work] helped inspire me to turn vegetarian 5 years ago and now getting closer to being vegan. That in turn led me to co-found an alternative protein business turning mushrooms and natural, plant based ingredients into meat to help people reduce their meat consumption - www.fablefood.co
Thanks for being a pioneer and inspiration in the space.

Animal Liberation was a philosophical bombshell. It forever changed the conversation about our treatment of animals. It made people—myself included–change what we ate, what we wore, and how we perceived animals.
When a friend gave me a copy of Animal Liberation in 1980, it was an epiphany. I thought, “Here it is, this is what I’ve been thinking. Someone has given a voice to it.”
Long after I finished reading the book, Peter Singer’s words kept echoing through my mind.


Imagine that you could choose a book that everyone in the world would read. My choice would be this book [How Are We to Live? Ethics in an Age of Self-Interest] by Peter Singer.
It is a good philosophy book, which covers many historical, social, and biological issues with command and verve, but I would choose it because its persuasive power could change many people's lives for the better, both from their own point of view and from that of the world as a whole.
