520    "Observance of what people in present-day India eat and do
       not eat, the styles and contexts within which they do so, 
       and the disparities between rhetoric and everyday action 
       prompt vital questions concerning what it is to be Indian 
       in the early twenty-first century. The current "beef 
       situation" exposes, like no other issue, the central fault
       lines that run across contemporary Indian society. Sacred 
       Cows and Chicken Manchurian explores contemporary cattle 
       slaughter and beef-eating in India and considers what has 
       led to the apparent turn away from the hitherto secularist
       approach of post-independence India. The book draws on 
       ethnographic research in both rural and urban South India 
       with domestic cattle owners, brokers, butchers, and meat 
       eaters. It brings nuance to existing accounts by 
       journalists, historians, and others by charting how 
       ordinary people navigate the current febrile political 
       climate in their everyday lives. In doing so, it avoids an
       overly simplistic binary opposition between those who 
       oppose the slaughter of cattle and those who view beef 
       consumption as a fundamental right. Locating debates and 
       actions concerning beef eating in relation to caste and 
       community, the book offers a fine-grained exploration of 
       the current situation as it is experienced on the ground, 
       comprehensively locating it within the wider anthropology 
       of food and eating in the region"--|cProvided by
