What
Readers Have to Say About
Animal Factories by Jim
Mason
Appalling! If you're not a vegetarian, you probably will be by the
end of this book. It's like a nightmare on paper. The book
was a very informative read. Jim Mason and Peter Singer are
two of the best sources for books on animal rights. It was
appalling to read what happens to animals that are being
raised for slaughter. Some of this book is difficult to stomach.
While it may seem unbelievable, it is a true account. Male
chicks are literally thrown in the garbage, others are debeaked
with a hot iron, pigs are kept confined in tiny stalls, so
tiny that they cannot turn around. I'm sure there are a lot
of people out there who think that this kind of abuse can't
possibly happen but it does. This is a life-changing book. Reviewer: Sandi, Ontario, Canada
Want to know what you're eating? I bought this book years ago and became a vegetarian after
seeing how horribly the animals are treated and how wasteful
meat production is. I don't think there is anything worse
than closing your eyes to what really goes on just so you
don't have to take action and possibly change your lifestyle.
This book will open your eyes. Reviewer: A reader, California
Very informative and many pictures This book really opened my eyes to the conditions in which
animals are being raised. Not only is it inhumane to the
animals, but it is contaminating OUR food. It has many pictures,
which I like, being a visual person. Read this book and you
will find it very educational. Reviewer: Sylvia Joy Swan, Chicago
This is the book that made me become a vegetarian When I was first exploring the issue of eating meat vs.
becoming vegetarian, a friend recommended this book. Mason
and Singer look inside the world of modern factory farming,
providing an unsentimental look at the reality behind your
dinner. Even those who don't give a damn about animals and
their suffering will be alarmed at the information concerning
what's in animal feed and the conditions in meat production.
An eye-opener. Reviewer: Unknown
