Why We Love Dogs, Eat Pigs, and Wear Cows: An Introduction to Carnism
This groundbreaking book introduces carnism, the invisible belief system that conditions us to eat certain animals. Unlike the many books that explain why we shouldn’t eat meat, this book explains why we do eat meat – and thus how we can make more informed choices as citizens and consumers.
