Eating with Conscience: The Bioethics of Food
by Dr. Michael Fox
In this concise and readable review of Agribusiness,
Fox explores the political, ethical, and consumer arenas of our food chain.
At the end of this chain rest the animals, pumped with drugs and hormones,
living unhealthy lives, and passing that dis-ease in their bodies onto
us.
Prisoned Chickens, Poisoned Eggs
by Karen Davis
Thorough
and riveting, Davis offers the definitive book on the treatment of chickens
for food and eggs.
Vegan: The New Ethics of Eating
by Erik Marcus
Marcus’
book is widely considered to be the best introduction to veganism for
the person who wants well-documented and concise information on the health,
environmental, and animal welfare consequences of eating animals. Give
this one to a meat-eater you love.
Slaughterhouse: The Shocking Story of Greed, Neglect,
and Inhumane Treatment Inside the U.S. Meat Industry
by Gail Eisnitz
This
book blows the lid off USDA and meat industry claims that animals are
humanely slaughtered and lends new meaning to the adage that “if
slaughterhouses had glass walls, everyone would be vegetarian.”
Sacred Cows and Golden Geese
by C. Ray Greek, M.D. and Jean Swingle
Takes
you from the origins of vivisection to the resulting harm to humans.
Had animal experiments been relied on, humans would not
take aspirin, Tylenol, Advil, or penicillin. Exposes the misleading and
lucrative research gravy train.
Dominion: The Power of Man, the Suffering of Animals,
and the Call to Mercy
by Matthew Scully
This
is one of the best books ever written on the subject of animal welfare.
Scully is a journalist and former speechwriter for President George W.
Bush.
The Case for Animal Rights
by Tom Regan
More
than twenty years after its original publication, The Case for Animal
Rights is an acknowledged classic of moral philosophy, and its author
is recognized as the intellectual leader of the animal rights movement.
Dead Meat
by Sue Coe
Political
artist Coe spent years visiting slaughterhouses and meat farms in the
U.S., Canada, and England, all the while drawing and writing about what
she saw. The result is a fascinating and revealing portrait of the institutions
behind the meat we eat. Coe's illustrations, which appear regularly in
such publications as the New York Times and the New Yorker,
have the sharply lined, affecting realism of a Diego Rivera mural.
