Included are readings ranging from Plato's Phaedoand Verses of Sen-No-Rikyu to Peter Singer's "Becoming a Vegetarian" andJean-Fran ois Revel's Culture and Cuisine.This reader will haveparticular appeal for philosophers working in social theory, feminist theory, andenvironmental ethics, and for those working on alternative approaches to suchtraditional subject areas as epistemology, aesthetics, and metaphysics.
