Like many young Americans, Jonathan Safran Foer spent much of his teenage and college years oscillating between enthusiastic carnivore and occasional vegetarian. As he became a husband, and then a father, the moral dimensions of eating became increasingly important to him. Faced with the prospect of being unable to explain why we eat some animals and not others, Foer set out to explore the origins of many eating traditions and the fictions involved with creating them.
Traveling to the darkest corners of our dining habits, Foer raises the unspoken question behind every fish we eat, every chicken we fry, and every burger we grill. Part memoir and part investigative report, Eating Animals is a book that, in the words of the Los Angeles Times , places Jonathan Safran Foer "at the table with our greatest philosophers."
Jonathan Safran Foer is the author of Everything Is Illuminated and Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close. His books have been translated into thirty-six languages. Everything Is Illuminated received a National Jewish Book Award and a Guardian First Book Award, and was made into a film by Liev Schreiber. Foer lives in Brooklyn.

评分作者描述了工业化农场给动物带来的痛苦,如果一个人并不care动物的痛苦,对她/他来说,动物的痛苦不能构成放弃肉食的理由。一个人可以在自己的满足与动物的痛苦之间作出选择——“爱心不能当饭吃!”“别人家的孩子死不完,何况动物?”“感谢动物的牺牲,感谢上帝的恩赐……...
评分"Eating Animals is a personal journey that follows, roughly, the Divine Comedy template. Halfway along life’s path, Foer finds himself lost in a dark wood: With fatherhood approaching, he feels compelled to make a final decision about the ethics of eating ...
评分读完这本书,我迫不及待给哥们描述书中所说的工业化养殖的残酷与无情,也许潜意识在向他贩卖素食主义,也许是出于在乎身边人的健康的缘由。没想到,他一句“呵呵”像一盆冷水把我从头浇到脚,我都来不及颤抖就失去了继续‘布道’的欲望。 弗尔在书中说,‘当然,大多数人...
不错~
