Best Books on Veganism: Hungry Beautiful Animals by Matthew Halteman, a Book Club

It is rare that after 12 years of being vegan I come across a book on veganism that surprises me with such a jolt that I find myself dedicating not one podcast episode to it but two.

If you missed last week's episode of the podcast I sat down to have the most thrilling chat with Matthew Halteman, author of the book Hungry Beautiful Animals: The Joyful Case for Going Vegan, professor of philosophy at Calvin University in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and fellow in the Oxford Centre for Animal Ethics, UK, and although he articulates the essence of this book much better than I ever could, I wanted to do what we do with the books we find to be incredibly inspiring, to beg the people that sit in a circle in our figurative living room, all clutching their own paper gems to discuss, and beg them to make this the next book club pick. The great news is that when we have a book club episode in the More Plants Podcast, we have no one to convince, other than all our listeners when I say, whether you're a new vegan, veg curious, a seasoned vegan, or someone grappling with the ethics of eating animals, you must get this book, and I'll share why in today's episode.
