Meat Market: Animals, Ethics, and Money

Erik Marcus

The beginning of this is a good no nonsense summary of what goes on in the meat industry. It is followed by the author’s call for a kind of dismantlement movement, which I found a little lame–full of pronouncements and, well, platitudes. The last part of the book is a collection of small essays by activists. Then there is an Appendix section that could well have made up a decent chapter. So, this was not what I expected and on that count was disappointing. But there’s some reliable and direct information here that is useful.
