Chew On This should be on every teenager's essential reading list. Based on Eric Schlosser's bestselling Fast Food Nation, this is the shocking truth about the fast food industry - how it all began, its success, what fast food actually is, what goes on in the slaughterhouses, meatpacking factories and flavour labs, global advertising, merchandising in UK schools, mass production and the exploitation of young workers in the thousands of fast-food outlets throughout the world. It also takes a look at the effects on the environment and the highly topical issue of obesity. Meticulously researched, lively and informative, with first-hand accounts and quotes from children and young people, Eric Schlosser presents the facts in such a way that allows readers to make up their own minds about the incredible fast food phenomenon. Eric Schlosser is an author and investigative journalist based in New York. His first book, FAST FOOD NATION was a major international bestseller. His work has appeared in 'Atlantic Monthly', 'Rolling Stone' and the Guardian. CHEW ON THIS is his first book for children.

Jared Diamond and other leading scholars have argued that the domestication of animals for food, labor, and tools of war has advanced the development of human society. But by comparing practices of animal exploitation for food and resources in different societies over time, David A. Nibert reaches a strikingly different conclusion. He finds in the domestication of animals, which he renames "domesecration," a perversion of human ethics, the development of large-scale acts of violence, disastrous patterns of destruction, and growth-curbing epidemics of infectious disease. Nibert centers his study on nomadic pastoralism and the development of commercial ranching, a practice that has been largely controlled by elite groups and expanded with the rise of capitalism. Beginning with the pastoral societies of the Eurasian steppe and continuing through to the exportation of Western, meat-centered eating habits throughout today's world, Nibert connects the domesecration of animals to violence, invasion, extermination, displacement, enslavement, repression, pandemic chronic disease, and hunger. In his view, conquest and subjugation were the results of the need to appropriate land and water to maintain large groups of animals, and the gross amassing of military power has its roots in the economic benefits of the exploitation, exchange, and sale of animals. Deadly zoonotic diseases, Nibert shows, have accompanied violent developments throughout history, laying waste to whole cities, societies, and civilizations. His most powerful insight situates the domesecration of animals as a precondition for the oppression of human populations, particularly indigenous peoples, an injustice impossible to rectify while the material interests of the elite are inextricably linked to the exploitation of animals. Nibert links domesecration to some of the most critical issues facing the world today, including the depletion of fresh water, topsoil, and oil reserves; global warming; and world hunger, and he reviews the U.S. government's military response to the inevitable crises of an overheated, hungry, resource-depleted world. Most animal-advocacy campaigns reinforce current oppressive practices, Nibert argues. Instead, he suggests reforms that challenge the legitimacy of both domesecration and capitalism.

Contributing to the social justice agenda of redefining what science is and what it means in the lives of real people, this book takes up the challenge of building an approach to science education from the standpoint of the learner. With this orientation to science and scientific literacy, science educators can begin to make inroads into the currently widespread irrelevance of science in the everyday lives of people.

«تبدأ حكاية المطعم الأوروبي في أن الناس لا يشعرون بالجوع، أو أنهم يتظاهرون كما لو كانوا لا يشعرون به. فحال باريس بجياعها لا يُناظر الوضع نحو عام 1760». هكذا يبدأ مؤلف هذا الكتاب، كريستوف رِبات، حديثه عن المطعم الأوروبي، مركزاً على كون كلمة مطعم في الأصل لا تعني أكثر «من أطباق الخزف الصيني الصغيرة المزخرفة يتصاعد منها بخار أحساء يساعد في إعادة الوعي أو الصحة». أما عادة تناول الطعام في المطاعم، كبديل عن الحانة أو الخان، فقد انتشرت بعد الثورة الفرنسية، حين أتى أعضاء الجمعية الوطنية من جميع المقاطعات إلى باريس ومعاً ذهبوا إلى المطاعم لتناول الطعام هناك، و«أهل باريس، لم يسعهم، سوى تقليدهم». يعقد الكاتب مقارنة بين المطعم والمقهى، منطلقاً من أن المطعم لا يزوره المرء «من أجل خوض جدل مع آخرين، وليس من أجل قراءة جريدة. بل يأتي إليه من أجل الاسترخاء أو من أجل استعراض رقة شعوره». كما ينوه إلى «تمتع المطعم بِأركان فيها قد ينزوي المرء مجرياً أحاديث سرية أو لأغراض رومانسية. رجال ونساء يظهرون معاً هنا، تصور غير مألوفٍ أبداً «على الأقل لغير الفرنسيين في نحو 1800، يتحدثون عن ذلك وقد تملكهم العجب».
