There are a lot of books out there on this subject. Too many to list. This one doesn't just ask the questions. It questions the questions and the author skillfully shares his insights on the subject. Its funny, its sad, its insightful, its a little preachy, but at the end of the day it is a worthy read for everyone. It has certainly got the conversation in my head going.

i just read this, too. i loved and hated reading it. loved it because i presented it's subject extraordinarily well, was thoughtful, was well crafted. and, i thought, actually fairly neutral.
ReplyDeletethis book should be required reading in every high school. in fact, i would say if you want to eat meat, you have to read this first.
i hated reading it because it completely burst any hopeful idea of how animals are farmed in this country. it presents a grotesque truth. like eating a vegetable that i did not like as a child, i sometimes choked it down because it was good for me.
