Pornography of Meat

How does someone become a piece of meat? Carol J. Adams answers this question in this provocative book by finding hidden meanings in the culture around us. From advertisements to T-shirts, from billboards to menus, from matchbook covers to comics, images of women and animals are merged--with devastating consequences. From the rise of chain steakhouses to the language of the hunt from the halls of government to the practice of artificial insemination on farm animals, The Pornography of Meat shows exactly how harm to others parades as fun and examines the way popular culture, advertising, and pornography create a hostile environment for women and animals.Adams, Carol is the author of 'Pornography of Meat', published 2004 under ISBN 9780826416469 and ISBN 0826416462.
