Product Description:
John Robbins, the man who started the 'food revolution' with the ground-breaking Diet for a New America, boldly posits that, collectively, our personal diet can save ourselves and the world. His latest book presents compelling new information regarding the fields of nutrition, heart disease and cancer, agribusiness, and bioengineering. It discusses the latest discoveries about the relationships between diet and longevity, aging, and vitality. Armed with powerful statistics, fascinating viewpoints, and incisive exposes, Robbins argues for adopting a vegetarian diet for personal well-being as well as for the well-being of the planet.

- Exceptionally good book
Start reading this engaging book at any place and you'll want to keep going. The author, John Robbins, passed over his heirship to the Baskin and Robbins ice cream success. Without condemning his father and uncle, he transformed his pain by knowing and seeing what too much ice cream and other animal based products do to people into a humanitarian masterpiece.

The book carefully exposes (with thorough endnotes) major fallacies held by most people and, at the same time, provides a realistically attainable solution. And did I mention that it's engaging?

I'm not a vegetarian, not young (I'm 50), not overweight and have no cardiovascular issues. I still believe that killing for food is ethical.
Until reading this book, I usually ate a "well-rounded diet," including red meat, large glasses of whole milk, cheese, chicken and eggs. To me, vegans were cultish, over-board fanatics.

- Covers every issues related to meat - Great Book
I loved this book because it covered all aspects of the world that are touched by the meat industry. He talks about the way animals are raised, fed and massacred. Then John brings up the environment and how it is suffering from our hunger for meat, how we are using the resources of our planet, polluting it and marking it for years to come. He then brings the human consequences, how it affects our health, not only from eating meat, but also from how the polluted environment affects us. To this we can't forget the horrible conditions in which meat packing workers are subjected.

A must read that will lead you to want to learn even more about it, and he offers a panoply of resources you can use to verify his information.

Life changing book.
