review 1: "We're the only species that has completely messed up the earth---air pollution, water pollution, land degradation, rain forest deconstruction, ocean decimation,and climate change. We're the ones suffering from addiction to alcohol, food, drugs, tobacco, work, TV, sex, pornography, cellphones; we're the ones depressed, anxious, angry and lethargic; we're the ones who seems to have it all, yet can't make our lives work" - Rory FreedmanI Loved this quote! It's sooo true! Us humans are the ones contributing to all these things-not the animals we choose to make suffer so we can eat/ware/enjoy them. After reading this---I can say I def. on my way to a more Veg friendly lifestyle. My husband and I do not eat a lot of meat, but I do plan on cutting more and more out....I know it'... mores a transition and a lifestyle change, and I am ready to make it! I can't wait to see the tasty dishes I come up with; knowing I have not harmed 1 single animal doing it! Everyone should read this book-or Skinny Bitch to really open your eyes up about the foods so many of us eat daily! Great read---hard at some points but everything just made sense...
review 2: I was disappointed in this book. I picked it up because it is "A Radical New Way of Regarding Animals." I found nothing new in it. It described every horror committed to animals in the name of food, clothing or entertainment. This was followed by a short section on animal activism and how we can help. Basically: spay/neuter, adopt, be vegan, don't buy leather, boycott entertainment that uses animals (rodeos, dogsled races, etc). Oh yeah, and while you're becoming a vegan, so can your dog. The book has 413 footnotes with a large number of those references being PETA materials. One star for Ms Freedman's originality in the discussion of her dogs, their behavior and her relationship with them. less
