Compassionate Thanksgiving - Go Meatless?

Compassionate Thanksgiving - Go Meatless?

The library strives to support the academic programs of the college, and in the past decade we've taken note of assignments, courses, faculty research interests, and Interims focused on the topic of humans' care for the animal world.

So, we've collected books and other materials on this topic. It's especially pertinent now as we think about American Thanksgiving and what we choose to eat. We all know about factory farms and the inhumane treatment of animals in such places. But maybe you don't know much about library resources that can lead you to reliable information and scholarly research on this topic.

Here are some books to get your started:

Books on this topic can be found all through the collection: in SF (agriculture), HV4700 (protection of animals & animal rights), BT749 (doctrinal theology - Creation), and TX341-641 (nutrition & food supply).
