An Ethical and Sociological Look at Diet
Fairley N. - 3 years agoIn "Eating Animals," Jonathan Safran Foer poses the question of diet, but not in a way that you may think. This isn't your typical book about what we eat, how we eat, or the way we treat what we eat; this is a book about what it means to think about how we eat. Foer talks about meals, community, the bonding experiences of the family dinner, and what puts people so on edge about various diets (specifically vegetarian/veganism). If you're interested in this book or topics like it, also try "Some We Love, Some We Hate, Some We Eat" by Hal Herzog.
HPB Staff Review -
A challenge to everything you thought you knew about being a carnivore.
Angela C. - 8 years agoThis book will force you to take a good, hard look at what you eat, and more importantly, why. Though the book is non-fiction, Foer's deft hand with prose makes the book a quick read. It's the perfect blend of fact and open-ended philosophical questions to make even the most adamant meat-eater think twice. Be warned, reading this book might forever change what you eat -- or don't eat. Once you've read it, there's no going back. So what are you waiting for?! Go! Read it! Be a better human being for it!
