    I just got this book and I’m about to start reading it as soon as I finish the one I’m currently reading which also about animal rights. Animal rights really is linked with all other equal rights movements.

    The author of this book is not a vegetarian, however, it is an excellent look at the meanings of meat in our culture. A very thoughtful critique.
