We’ve been told that a vegetarian diet can feed the hungry, honor the animals, and save the planet. Lierre Keith believed in that plant-based diet and spent twenty years as a vegan. But in The Vegetarian Myth, she argues that we’ve been led astray - not by our longings for a just and sustainable world, but by our ignorance. e truth is that agriculture is a relentless assault against the planet, and more of the same won’t save us. In service to annual grains, humans have devastated prairies and forests, driven countless species extinct, altered the climate, and destroyed the topsoil - the basis of life itself....

Logical Revolutionary Ideas
Revisado: 11-10-17
Ms. Keith provides inspirational breakthroughs which could serve to resolve many of humanities existential crisis as it relates to food production, distribution, and consumption. I thoroughly enjoyed her science and data backed approach and analysis.
If the first nine-tenths of the book were not so impressive and innovative the last tenth of the book would have ruined the entire book for me. I did not appreciate the dramatic subject turn and unnecessary political grandstanding.
However, and fortunately, the vast majority of this book is fascinating. Subject matter not previously debated or discussed is done so ad nauseam in this book. Long overdue.
Well done.

Four US Navy SEALS departed one clear night in early July 2005 for the mountainous Afghanistan-Pakistan border for a reconnaissance mission. Their task was to document the activity of an al Qaeda leader rumored to have a small army in a Taliban stronghold. Five days later, only one of those Navy SEALS made it out alive. This is the story of the only survivor of Operation Redwing, SEAL team leader Marcus Luttrell, and the extraordinary firefight that led to the largest loss of life in American Navy SEAL history.

Epic from beginning to end. The narration, story, depth, emotion, realism, were all excellent.
A must listen.
