Peter Singer's new book

Singer's new book, 'The Way We Eat,' co-written with Jim Mason, looks at the eating habits of three different American families: vegans, 'conscientious omnivores' and a family eating the 'standard American diet.' The elements of each diet and the production chain that brought it to the table are then carefully considered in light of environmental impact, fair trade, the organic movement, the grow-local movement, genetically modified foods, animal rights and the depredations of agribusiness."
