Author: Elle NashSome We Love, Some We Hate, Some We Eat
Author: Hal HerzogPublisher: Harper Collins
ISBN: 0061730858
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 370
Book Description
Does living with a pet really make people happier and healthier? What can we learn from biomedical research with mice? Who enjoys a better quality of life—–the chicken destined for your dinner plate or the rooster in a Saturday night cockfight? Why is it wrong to eat the family dog? Drawing on more than two decades of research into the emerging field of anthrozoology, the science of human–animal relations, Hal Herzog offers an illuminating exploration of the fierce moral conundrums we face every day regarding the creatures with whom we share our world. Alternately poignant, challenging, and laugh-out-loud funny—blending anthropology, behavioral economics, evolutionary psychology, and philosophy—this enlightening and provocative book will forever change the way we look at our relationships with other creatures and, ultimately, how we see ourselves.
That's Why We Don't Eat Animals
Author: Ruby RothPublisher: North Atlantic Books
ISBN: 1556437854
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 50
Book Description
That’s Why We Don’t Eat Animals uses colorful artwork and lively text to introduce vegetarianism and veganism to early readers (ages six to ten). Written and illustrated by Ruby Roth, the book features an endearing animal cast of pigs, turkeys, cows, quail, turtles, and dolphins. These creatures are shown in both their natural state—rooting around, bonding, nuzzling, cuddling, grooming one another, and charming each other with their family instincts and rituals—and in the terrible conditions of the factory farm. The book also describes the negative effects eating meat has on the environment. A separate section entitled “What Else Can We Do?” suggests ways children can learn more about the vegetarian and vegan lifestyles, such as:“Celebrate Thanksgiving with a vegan feast” or “Buy clothes, shoes, belts, and bags that are not made from leather or other animal skins or fur.” This compassionate, informative book offers both an entertaining read and a resource to inspire parents and children to talk about a timely, increasingly important subject.

Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
A contemporary Erma Bombeck extols the highs and lows of parenting When Dallas Louis decided that all she wanted in life was to meet and marry her Prince Charming and become a mother, she had no idea what was in store for her. But she would soon find out. After only seven months of dating, she married the love of her life, and within the course of twenty-six months, she gave birth to three children. Her husband knew her longer pregnant than not pregnant! In this hilarious book, Dallas shares highlights of what happened in her world once she and her husband, Jeff, brought home three kids in a time span that was barely long enough to build a house, let alone long enough to build three humans. She would like readers to find comfort in knowing that they aren't the only ones suffering from post-traumatic stress syndrome or buyer's remorse. And, yes, it's okay to admit that both of those conditions apply to parenting, though hopefully not all the time. Channeling Erma Bombeck, Dallas will tell you all the things your friends will not and the things the other books are too afraid to print. With her irreverent humor and brash "tell it like it is" style, she'll help you laugh at everyday situations, easing the pressure of the toughest job in the world: being a mom.
