Description
This text looks at our dependence on animals for food and what this means in terms of the profoundly inhumane and unhealthy conditions under which animals are raised and prepared for consumption. In an account of these conditions, and of the physical, emotional and economic price we, as consumers, are paying, John Robbins offers a fresh code for living that enhances rather than diminishes health, economic well being and humanitarianism.

| display_description | From John Robbins, a new edition of the classic that awakened the conscience of a nation. Since the 1987 publication of Diet for a New America, beef consumption in the United States has fallen a remarkable nineteen percent. While many forces are contributing to this dramatic shift in our habits, Diet for a New America is considered to be one of the most important. Diet for a New America is a startling examination of the food we currently buy and eat in the United States, and the astounding moral, economic, and emotional price we pay for it. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
