| An original, witty look into the clamour over livestock and meat, showing consumers how they can be healthy and humane carnivores As an animal-loving, animal-raising, animal-eating farmer, Catherine Friend explores the contradictions, nuances and questions surrounding the bewildering choices facing today's meat-eaters. Using her own struggle to become a conscious carnivore as a lens, she has written one of the first books to educate readers about the lives of animals, and still support their choice to eat meat. Conscious carnivores know about factory farming and the use of antibiotics and growth hormones, but they know little about the animals themselves. This book offers a different perspective, the view of someone who must spend time, energy and money nurturing an animal whose sole purpose is to be killed and eaten. With Friend's signature wit, humour, and yes, compassion, The Compassionate Carnivore is an eye-opening look into the lives of the animals on our tables |
