Eat This Book by Dominique Lestel
A provocative defense of meat eating as an affirmation of our vital relation and debt to animals.
Witty and comical yet always serious in its defense of meat eating, Eat This Book is a pure joy to read-- Brett Buchanan, Laurentian University Eat This Book challenges ethical vegetarians with a variety of counterarguments to consider. Though some of the rhetoric may prove indigestible, such skepticism ultimately feeds the philosophic debate on diet. -- Ralph R. Acampora, Hofstra University
