Whether you want to gain knowledge on the go or find the books you''ll love, Joosr''s brief and accessible eBook summaries fit into your life. Find out more at joosr.com.
Global meat consumption and production has increased dramatically over the past 40 years, but still many of us refuse to stop and truly consider the implications of this. The meat produced today is highly industrialized and, like it or not, eating it has serious implications-for animals, humans, and the planet we share.
Eating Animals is one man''s quest to find out what it truly means to eat meat in this day and age. It explores where meat comes from, the practicalities of providing edible flesh for a swelling world populous, and how necessary a meat-based diet truly is. Not to be mistaken for simple propaganda for a vegan or vegetarian lifestyle, this book instead offers a thorough, objective, and balanced account of what animal agriculture looks like in the present day-and the full implications of choosing to eat animals.
You will learn:
· The hidden costs of industrialized farming
· Why we choose to eat certain animals and domesticate others
· The relationship between morality and diet choice.

How does Britain get its food? Why is our current system at breaking point?How can we fix it before it is too late?British food has changed remarkably in the last half century. As we have become wealthier and more discerning, our food has Europeanized (pizza is children's favourite food) and internationalized (we eat the world's cuisines), yet our food culture remains fragmented, a mix of mass 'ultra-processed' substances alongside food as varied and good as anywhere else on the planet.This book takes stock of the UK food system: where it comes from, what we eat, its impact, fragilities and strengths. It is a book on the politics of food. It argues that the Brexit vote will force us to review our food system. Such an opportunity is sorely needed. After a brief frenzy of concern following the financial shock of 2008, the UK government has slumped once more into a vague hope that the food system will keep going on as before. Food, they said, just required a burst of agri-technology and more exports to pay for our massive imports.Feeding Britain argues that this and other approaches are short-sighted, against the public interest, and possibly even strategic folly. Setting a new course for UK food is no easy task but it is a process, this book urges, that needs to begin now.'Tim Lang has performed a public service' Simon Jenkins, Sunday Times - E-bokEngelska, 2020

A fast-paced, gripping insider account of the entrepreneurs and renegades racing to bring lab-grown meat to the world.The trillion-dollar meat industry is one of our greatest environmental hazards; it pollutes more than all the world's fossil-fuel-powered cars. Global animal agriculture is responsible for deforestation, soil erosion and more emissions than air travel, paper mills and coal mining combined. It also depends on the slaughter of more than 60 billion animals per year, a number that is only increasing as the global appetite for meat swells. The whole world seems to be sleepwalking into a food crisis.But a band of doctors, scientists, activists and entrepreneurs have been racing to end animal agriculture as we know it, hoping to fulfill a dream of creating meat without ever having to kill an animal. This is the story of a group of seven vegans quietly working to solve one the most pressing issues we face today, creating the biggest upheaval to the food business in decades along the way.In Billion Dollar Burger, Chase Purdy explores the companies at the cutting edge of the nascent food technology sector, from polarizing activist-turned-tech CEO Josh Tetrick to lobbyists and regulators on both sides of the issue. Billion Dollar Burger follows the people fighting to upend our food system as they butt up against the entrenched interests fighting viciously to stop them. It will take readers on a truly global journey from Silicon Valley to China, by way of Israel and the UK.The stakes are monumentally high: cell-cultured meat is the best hope for sustainable food production, a key to fighting climate change, a gold mine for the companies that make it happen and an existential threat for the farmers and meatpackers that make our meat today. - Häftad, Engelska, 2024

What does it mean when a food-rich society has thousands going hungry?How do food and politics intersect?How can our food habits reconnect us with nature?From family dinners to solo lunches, chain supermarkets to local greengrocers, a measure of wealth to a tactic of civil rights movements, how and what we eat has shaped our relationship with one another and with our environment.But how can we use the cultural, social, personal and political power of food to make a change in the world?Catherine Joy White unpacks the rich and expansive legacy that informs our treatment of food on a global scale and uses it to create a roadmap for the future. White deftly tackles issues such as food poverty and its intersections with identity, misconceptions of disordered eating, nationwide movements such as Marcus Rashford's campaign to feed the children of Britain, as well as innovative new ways of growing, consuming and sharing food in response to the climate crisis.What we eat matters, and On the Future of Food is a deeply thoughtful, joyfully optimistic call to imagine and demand better - for ourselves and for future generations.Rebel Takes is a series that asks its writers to hope. Exploring the past and present of foundational apsects of society, each instalment will envision an alternative future, charge history with radical possibility and set out to answer the question: how can we make change happen?***Previous praise for Catherine Joy White:'An extraordinary writer, the kind who turns non-fiction into poetry ' Afua Hirsch'A much needed voice in our current cultural landscape' Ione Gamble'To be held by [White's] words is an absolute pleasure' Ruby Rare - E-bokEngelska, 2010

‘Lucid, informed and persuasive’ Evening Standard‘Thought-provoking’ Daily Mail‘An extraordinary book’ Nicholas Evans, author of The Horse WhispererThe history of humanity’s relationship with other species is baffling.Without animals there would be no us. We are all fellow travellers on the same evolutionary journey. By charting the love–hate story of people and animals, from their first acquaintance in deep prehistory to the present and beyond, Richard Girling reveals how and where our attitudes towards animals began – and how they have persisted, been warped and become magnified ever since.In dazzling prose, The Longest Story tells of the cumulative influence of theologians, writers, artists, warriors, philosophers, farmers, activists and scientists across the centuries, now locking us into debates on farming, extinction, animal rights, pets, experiments and religion.‘Essential reading’ Philip Lymbery, CEO of Compassion in World Farming and author of Farmageddon
