Produktbeschreibung
The Plant-based and Vegan Handbook is the first of its kind to bring together interlocking – and sometimes conflicting – perspectives focused on veganism and plant-based living. As an interdisciplinary volume the noted contributors are from the fields of medicine, psychiatry, environmental studies, sociology, marine ecology, philosophy, agriculture, psychology, animal studies, religion, economics, literature, business, and law. Despite a range of individual preferences, these authors advance a scientific argument for a societal move away from the current model of human and nonhuman animal relationships.

In our Anthropocene era experts not only debate about how human beings will , survive on Earth, but more particularly are more concerned with how they will thrive. As evidenced by the authors in this collection, it will involve a reconsideration of the way our species relates to the planet and to other species. This volume can serve as a critical reference work, especially for students and scholars working in both emerging and established fields such as psychology, medicine, animal studies, food studies, environmental studies, philosophy, animal ethics, and marine ecology.
