His conclusions are generally hopeful: more humane treatment of animals, better farming methods, greater food knowledge, healthier eating habits, and, ideally, healthier people. ~ Reviewed by Mike Hare

Gordon Chaplin's loving depiction of a vanishing undersea wilderness of fishes and reefs in the Bahamas. Part memoir of growing up collecting and cataloguing specimens with his larger-than-life scientist father while free-diving in "gin clear" waters, part reflection on loss and longing for "home," this is a poignant and fascinating read. ~ Reviewed by Amy Palmer

Ignorance is bliss! However, ignorance also leads to conflict, misunderstandings, carelessness, and sometimes even stupidity. This book did not make me become a vegetarian, but it did make me become WAY more aware and conscientious of the type of meat I put into my body. Foer did his homework when writing this book and I am wiser for that reason. Factory farming is a frightening industry in America. Please do your homework and read up on this unsettling, yet important topic. ~ Reviewed by Misha D'Andrea

A persuasive argument for a natural, holistic approach to agriculture using Fukuoka's own philosophy and practical experience. Though a scientist by training, Fukuoka is critical of the reductionist view and instead embraces the interconnectedness of all things, seeing his fields and orchards as the complex, semi-wild ecosystems they are. Every farmer should have this little book in his or her library, and all who eat should meet this vital perspective on food. ~ Reviewed by Julietta Cole
