Erik Marcus is one of America’s leading writers about animal agriculture and author of one of the most popular books on veganism, Vegan: the New Ethics of Eating. He is also the publisher of vegan.com, a popular website devoted to animal protection and the vegan lifestyle.

Please join Erik Marcus for this special Bay Area appearance as he talks about his newest book:

Meat Market: Animal, Ethics, and Money

Every generation, a book comes along that reshapes society’s attitudes toward food. Meat Market is such a book, and it offers the most compelling critique of animal agriculture yet set to print. In his talk, Erik Marcus looks at the history of animal agriculture, and charts the decline of its ethical standards. Despite the worsening plight of animals, Erik’s message is hopeful and optimistic. He offers ideas and strategies to combat cruelty that can be embraced by meat-lovers and activists alike. He also shows how easy it is to fill your diet with delicious, healthy, and humanely produced foods.

Please bring your family and friends to learn more about MEAT MARKET. Books available for sale & signing at presentation. 2 pm in the Mountain View Public Library Community Room, 585 Franklin Street, corner of Mercy and Franklin. Admission is Free. No need to RSVP.
