This book tells the 2.5 Million-year history of human beings' obsession with meat. Beginning with Earth's ancient bacteria coming into contact with other meats 1.5 Billion years ago, you will travel through history and space, from the depths of the Precambrian to the mid-21st century, from the steakhouses of India to the voodoo temples of Benin to the meat labs of Pennsylvania, seeking answers to questions about how humanity's obsession with meat began, why it has grown stronger, and whether it will ultimately end.
Reader comments
The book talks about the history of human meat-eating, as well as biology, sociology and other knowledge. I think I should cherish every piece of meat I can eat now, because it was difficult for people in the past to even eat meat. I will also study hard so that more people can eat meat in the future.
It's good-looking, and I have a better understanding of the past. I love eating meat and vegetables. It's my dream to have meat every meal [laughing]
It's okay, I'm the first to comment, and the author should be a foreigner
