The Ethics of Diet by Howard Williams

Presents a line of thought, a continuous thread, a tradition, a catena of protestation against living on Butchery. This title includes variety of the witnesses, the prophets of Reformed Dietetics who have shrunk from the regime of blood, including Gautama Buddha, Pythagoras, Plato, Hesiod, Epicurus, Seneca, Ovid, Thomas More, and more.
"Now we can join Gandhi and Tolstoy and nameless others who encountered this vigorous and invigorating bookWelcome to a company of radicals who believed we could and should stop eating non-human animals. They brought vegetarianism out of history and into the here and now." -- from the introduction
Howard Williams is senior lecturer in archaeology at the University of Chester and author of Death & Memory in Early Medieval Britain.
