À propos de cet audio

We’ve been told that a vegetarian diet can feed the hungry, honor the animals, and save the planet. Lierre Keith believed in that plant-based diet and spent twenty years as a vegan. But in The Vegetarian Myth, she argues that we’ve been led astray - not by our longings for a just and sustainable world, but by our ignorance.

The truth is that agriculture is a relentless assault against the planet, and more of the same won’t save us. In service to annual grains, humans have devastated prairies and forests, driven countless species extinct, altered the climate, and destroyed the topsoil - the basis of life itself. Keith argues that if we are to save this planet, our food must be an act of profound and abiding repair: it must come from inside living communities, not be imposed across them. Part memoir, part nutritional primer, and part political manifesto, The Vegetarian Myth will challenge everything you thought you knew about food politics.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"Lierre Keith’s book is beyond fantastic." (Dr. Michael Eades, author of Protein Power)
"This book saved my life. Not only does The Vegetarian Myth make clear how we should be eating, but also how the dominant food system is killing the planet. This necessary book challenges many of the destructive myths we live by and offers us a way back into our bodies, and back into the fight to save the planet." (Derrick Jensen, author of Endgame and A Language Older Than Words
"Everyone interested in healthy eating should be grateful to Lierre Keith." (Sally Fallon Morell, President, The Weston A. Price Foundation)

This book addresses so many myths promoted by the agricultural industry, but also explores humanity's relationship with plants and animals in a way that has forever changed the way I look at the world. This would be a tough pill to swallow for Vegans, but if you care about the planet, you need to hear this.

A world-shattering revelation

Amazing! Eye opening! Full of facts that should be taught during our school years if we want to thrive as a species. I'm a meat eater and this book is certainly not only for vegetarians.

A must read! It's time to wake up!

Must read

the vegetarian and vegan info is interesting. especially coming from a recovering vegan. worth listening to.

But that is interspersed with very strong opinions about the fact that my being male makes me an automatic plague on the whole world and all the poor female victims on Earth.

but I did not listen to this for that. I wanted to hear why a former vegan and soy eater and turned to meat . On that front. this is a worthwhile read.

good food info.

An eye opening, emotions stirring book. Tons of information to digest. Ripping at the very fabric of society.

Eye opening!

I struggled to listen. Tried to keep an open mind but her Past Vegetarian Mannerisms show through, not to mention her male bashing.

Way too preachy
