Eating animals
(Book)
On the brink of fatherhood--and facing the prospect of having to make dietary choices on a child's behalf--Foer's casual attitude towards food takes on a new urgency. Synthesizing philosophy, literature, science, memoir and his own detective work, Foer explores the many fictions we use to justify our eating habits--from folklore to pop culture to family traditions and national myth--and how such tales can lull us into a brutal forgetting.
