520    Massive fish kills from flesh-eating parasites. Unusual 
       concentrations of cancer and other diseases. Recalls of 
       meats, vegetables, and fruits because of deadly E-coli 
       bacterial contamination. Recent public health crises raise
       urgent questions about how our animal-derived food is 
       raised and brought to market. This book is about our 
       American food system gone terribly wrong--and the people 
       who are fighting to restore sustainable farming practices 
       and save our limited natural resources. Investigative 
       journalist David Kirby exposes the powerful business and 
       political interests behind large-scale factory farms, and 
       tracks the far-reaching fallout that contaminates our air,
       land, water, and food. He follows three families and 
       communities whose lives have been utterly changed by 
       immense neighboring animal farms, turning them into 
       unlikely activists.--From publisher description.
