Preaching to the converted, but I always like to keep up on new animal discoveries in science and learn all I can about the other creatures we with whom we share the planet. I had to skip the chapter on factory farming. ‘Eating Animals' contained plenty of information, and my partner literally does not let me look at things she gets in the mail from animal rights/protection agencies because of some of the images. But I digress. I very much appreciated information from the p.o.v. of a scientist discussing the philosophical side of things. It's rough reading, insofar as one is reading about the horrible things that happen to animals, but it is a necessary read.
