Mad Cowboy: The Plain Truth from the Cattle Rancher
Who Won't Eat Meat (by Howard Lyman with Glen Merzer,
Scribner, 1998). Fresh from his successful court battle
with the Texas cattlemen, Howard Lyman has written a book which
exposes how and why the meat industry is poisoning our bodies
and the planet. The book beautifully captures the wit,
warmth and extensive personal knowledge of one of the most effective
and inspirational public speakers of our time. Howard
knows the truth about the meat industry because he was once
part of The Club, and resigned his membership. If you're
eating meat before you read this book, you won't be when you
finish. Highly entertaining. Visit the Mad
Cowboy site to learn more.
The Food Revolution by John Robbins. Twenty chapters,
with over nine-hundred footnotes, track the studies and statements
of top researchers from around the world as they respond to
the public relation claims of the meat and dairy industry. When
we see the industry claims refuted, time and again by the best
minds in the diet and environmental community, we start to see
why there is a revolution going on.
Diet for a New America (by John Robbins, Stillpoint,
1987). Nominated for a Pulitzer Prize. This powerful book shows
the impact a meat-centered diet has on human health, the global
environment, and animal welfare. It has changed many people's
lives. If you care about your health or the planet, you can't
afford not to read it! Available in paperback and videotapes.
May All Be Fed (by John Robbins, William Merrow,
1992). Makes the connection between your diet and global issues:
world hunger, resource distribution, etc. Also helps the reader
act on the inspiration of Dietfor a New America by providing
extensive information on cooking, shopping, and resources for
vegetarian activism. Contains a short cookbook: 175 easy, all-American
vegan recipes.
The Vegan Sourcebook (click
here): A comprehensive guide to every aspect
of vegan living, brimming with all the tools you need to fully
put your compassion into action.
Beyond Beef (by Jeremy Rifkin, Dutton, 1992).
Why does a pound of ground beef sell in the supermarket for
only a few cents more than a pound of beans, when production
of the meat requires over 5,000 gallons of water and 16 pounds
of feed (much of it corn and soybeans)? The answer--massive
government subsidies to all levels of the meat and dairy industry,
rampant destruction of topsoil and water resources, and the
mechanization of agriculture (including animal raising)--will
surprise and shock you. Explains the historical importance in
western culture of raising and eating beef, and the necessity
of changing our diet.
Animal Factories (by Jim Mason & Peter
Singer, Crown Publishers, 1980). Old McDonald's farm is no more.
This important, eye-opening book exposes the changeover in the
60's and 70's from family farms to mechanized factory animal
'houses' (where almost all broiler chickens, laying chickens,
and veal calves, and many pigs and sheep, are raised today).
The conditions in these factories require the routine use of
antibiotics, insect,icides and other chemicals to keep the animals
alive long enough to be slaughtered. Helps you understand why
meat and poultry are so contaminated that the USDA was forced
to require handling labels on packaged meat and poultry in 1993.
Eating with Conscience: The Bioethics of Food
(by Dr. Michael W. Fox, NewSage Press, 1997) Bookstores order
directly from Publishers Group West at 1-800-788-3123. This
book is a call to consumers, farmers, and policy makers to establish
a green alliance with each other and help revolutionize industrial
agriculture from being self-destructive to sustainable. This
book investigates why and how we broke the vital connections
bewteen the soil itself, the well-being of farmers, ranchers,
consumers, and the humane treatment of farm animals and the
environment, and how we can -- and must -- restore these connections
for the good of all. ($14.95 paper)
Personal Health
("Vegan" = vegetarian without dairy or eggs)
Dr. Attwood's Low-Fat Prescription for Kids (by
Charles Attwood, M.D, F.A.A.P., Viking hardcover; Penguin paperback,
1995) Drawing from more than thirty years of experience in preventive
nutrition in one of the largest pediatric practices in the country,
and from numerous studies from around the world, Dr.
Charles Attwood offers proof that a low-fat diet
for children over the age of two protects them from serious
illnesses later on. He also debunks the twelve most common pediatric-diet
myths and maps out a realistic four-stage switch to a meatless,
complex-carbohydrate-based diet, after which the "fat taste"
virtually disappears. Included are tips on getting started,
food shopping, eating out, school lunches, and menus - plus
recipes, with nutritional analyses, already kid-tested.

The McDougall Program: 12 Days to Dynamic Health
(by John McDougall, M.D. & Mary McDougall, Penguin Books,
1990). Readers can go through Dr. McDougall's 12-day hospital
program at home. It replaces the disease-causing standard American
diet with a starch-based diet free of animal products and added
fats, and shows you how to prevent, control, and sometimes reverse
degenerative diseases such as atherosclerosis, arthritis, and
cancer.
Eat More, Weigh Less (by Dean Ornish, M.D., Harper
Collins, 1993). Very low-fat, vegetarian recipes from famous
chefs. Immediate bestseller. Now available in paperback.
