In short, no other book provides such a thorough introduction to factory farming."--National Catholic Reporter "Gives a full picture of the environmental, social, and ethical implications of Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations."--Grist Magazine: Environmental News & Commentary "For those who care about one of the greatest moral failings of our times, the Cafo Reader is indispensable."--Choice "The [book] is not meant solely to create shock and awe, but instead provides lines of reasoning that have the capacity to stick."--Edible San Francisco
