Description:
The protest against meat eating may turn out to be one of the most significant movements of our age. This book argues that vegetarians and vegans are not only protestors, but also moral pioneers. In terms of our relations with animals, it is difficult to think of a more urgent moral problem than the fate of billions of animals killed every year for human consumption. This book will be of interest to human geographers in the fields of animal-studies, and food consumption, and will appeal to animal protectionists, environmentalists, and humanitarians.
Review Quotes:
"Veganism is shaping up to be the ethical fight of the century. In a brilliant tribute to the fight ahead, Clair Linzey and Andrew Linzey of the Oxford Centre for Animal Ethics published a collection of essays from 25 of the most forward-thinking vegan and vegetarian writers from 11 different countries. The result is the 318-page moral heavyweight Ethical Vegetarianism and Veganism (Routledge 2018). Finally, arguing for the end of animal suffering is getting the time and space it deserves.Read this book Ethical Vegetarianism and Veganism with two things in mind: you can be the change you want to see in the world. And you can start by loving animals like sentient beings, not pieces of meat." Matthew Zampa Sentient Meida: https: //sentientmedia.org/book-review-ethical-vegetarianism-and-veganism/
