Is eating organic or free range sufficient to change the moral equation? Is there a moral cost in not eating meat? As billions of animals continue to be raised and killed by human beings for human consumption, affecting the significance and urgency in answering these questions grow. This volume collects twelve new essays by leading moral philosophers who address the difficult questions surrounding meat eating by examining various implications and consequences of our food choices. Some argue for the moral permissibility of eating meat by suggesting views such as farm animals would not exist and flourish otherwise, and the painless death that awaits is no loss to them. Others consider more specific examples like whether buying French fries at McDonalds is just as problematic as ordering a Big Mac due to the action's indirect support of a major purveyor of meat. The Moral Complexities of Eating Meat is a stimulating contribution to the ongoing debate on meat consumption and actively challenges readers to reevaluate their stand on food and animal ethics.--INSIDE FLAP. 588 0 Vendor-supplied metadata. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Meat|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85082715 |xMoral and ethical aspects.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh00006099 650 0 Meat industry and trade|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85082738|xMoral and ethical aspects.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh00006099 650 7 Meat.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1013210 650 7 Meat industry and trade|xMoral and ethical aspects.|2fast |0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/2061580 650 7 Meat industry and trade.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1013271 655 4 Electronic books. 700 1 Bramble, Ben,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n2015008991|eeditor. 700 1 Fischer, Bob,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ nb2009022442|eeditor. 776 08 |iPrint version:|tMoral complexities of eating meat.|dNew York, NY : Oxford University Press, [2016]|z9780199353903 |w(DLC) 2015004578|w(OCoLC)905517893 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1056064|zOnline ebook via EBSCO.
