What is The Meat We Eat about?
This hefty text with the rhyming title presents "the science involved in converting whole live animals into nutritious and appetizing food for human consumption." The latest edition comments briefly on how the American meat industry is addressing issues of growing societal concern such as "humane harvesting"; it provides an overview of some common animal diseases but does not discuss meat-related diseases, like bovine spongiform encephalopathy, that have been much in the news. The authors are meat scientists in academia and industry in South Dakota and Wisconsin. <p>Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)</p>
