Food ethics
by Ben Mepham
- 2 Want to read
None of us can avoid being interested in food. Our very existence depends on the supply of safe, nutritious foods. It is then hardly surprising that food has become the focus of a wide range of ethical concerns: Is the food we buy safe? Is it produced by means which respect the welfare of animals and conserve the environment? Are modern biotechnologies employed in food production immoral?
This book addresses such issues by applying ethical principles to many areas of current concern. The contributors provide original and thought-provoking treatments of a number of highly topical issues - from global hunger and its ethical implications to the cultural factors affecting food consumption. This interdisciplinary study will prove to be essential reading for all those concerned with food, as professionals, students or consumers.
