Henry Salt makes the reasoned, good-humored case for a meat-free life. In the form of essays and imagined dialogues he answers every common objection to vegetarianism with wit and patience, weighing health, ethics, and plain logic. A friend of Gandhi and a tireless reformer, he argues without ranting and persuades without preaching. A foundational and surprisingly funny classic for anyone weighing what belongs on their plate.
