      Though increasing numbers of people know that eating meat is detrimental to our planet's health, many still can't be convinced to give up eating meat. Acclaimed anthropologist Roanne Van Voorst shifts the focus from the present looking forward to the future looking back - imagining a world in which most no longer use animals for food, clothing, or other items. By shifting the viewpoint, she offers a clear and compelling vision of what it means to live in a world without meat. Print run 40,000.
