Download or read book The Ethics of Diet written by Howard Williams and published by . This book was released on 2017-10-24 with total page 586 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Howard Williams, a devoted disciple of Shelley and an enthusiastic defender of vegetarianism....Although the progress of vegetarianism has been slow, at least in European countries, the problem is older than Christianity, and it is highly interesting to study its history from Hesiod eight hundred years before Christ to our times. In penetrating into this subject we must examine the possibility of a purely vegetarian diet and its compatibility with progress and civilization." -The University Magazine and Free Review "It is much more than its title implies. It contains a series of excellent biographies of all the great men who have been vegetarians, or who have advocated vegetarianism....Few people have any idea of the great number of wise men who, in all ages since the dawn of civilization, have protested against flesh eating." -Amalgamated Engineers Monthly Journal "When things are present in abundance we often say they are as common as blackberries, and of book in London we may fitly say they are very much more common than that humble berry has ever been in our day. The good people in the 'Row' tell us that books have their seasons, but we find them coming in upon us in season and out of season. Still we always open a new book with genuine pleasure, and the one before us is unusually charming....'The Ethics of Diet' will take a permanent place on the shelves of scholars, if only as a mere display of pure adn chaste learning. A man need not be a vegetist to enjoy it, and no words of ours are sufficient to express our high appreciation of its merits....We cannot conclude this little notice without personally our thanks to Mr. Howard Williams for so choice a literary treat." -The Homoeopathic World "The author surveys mankind throughout the ages, and it is astonishing what a vast consensus of opinion he has been able to amass on the side of the humane aspect of dietetics." -The Glasgow Evening Times "Undoubtedly the greatest and most notable of all Howard Williams' contributions to the literature of humanitarianism....One of his strongest convictions is that the sacred cause of Right and Humaneness would be now far more advanced if there were a fuller persuasion among all humane persons of the importance of more efficient organization and concentration of energy against the worst forms of cruelty, and if the value of private propagandism and insistence upon the criminality of acquiescing in cruel usages were more generally recognized....'The Ethics of Diet' has well deserved the appellation of 'the text book of vegetarianism,' and the exceptional honor of being translated into Russian by so great a literary and ethical authority as Count Leo Tolstoy, who has spoken of Mr. Williams' work of the Vegetarian Society, to which all humane dietists owe their thanks, this extremely valuable and important book...is an event of real significance in the annals of humane reform." -The Humane Review "As a book of reference and as a historical work on food it has high value....An interesting work, giving the opinions of philosophers and moral reformers, eminent physicians and others in all ages on the subject of diet and drink. Prefacing each is a brief sketch of the life of the person whose views have been quoted. There are several hundred names altogether, and the opinions are all in favor of temperance and moderation in diet, with a preponderance in favor of vegetable food." -Journal of Hygiene and Herald of Health
Download or read book The Problematics of Moral and Legal Theory written by Richard A. Posner and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2009-06-01 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ambitious legal thinkers have become mesmerized by moral philosophy, believing that great figures in the philosophical tradition hold the keys to understanding and improving law and justice and even to resolving the most contentious issues of constitutional law. They are wrong, contends Richard Posner in this book. Posner characterizes the current preoccupation with moral and constitutional theory as the latest form of legal mystification--an evasion of the real need of American law, which is for a greater understanding of the social, economic, and political facts out of which great legal controversies arise. In pursuit of that understanding, Posner advocates a rebuilding of the law on the pragmatic basis of open-minded and systematic empirical inquiry and the rejection of cant and nostalgia--the true professionalism foreseen by Oliver Wendell Holmes a century ago. A bracing book that pulls no punches and leaves no pieties unpunctured or sacred cows unkicked, The Problematics of Moral and Legal Theory offers a sweeping tour of the current scene in legal studies--and a hopeful prospect for its future.

Download or read book Gut Feeling and Digestive Health in Nineteenth Century Literature History and Culture written by Manon Mathias and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-11-17 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book considers the historical and cultural origins of the gut-brain relationship now evidenced in numerous scientific research fields. Bringing together eleven scholars with wide interdisciplinary expertise, the volume examines literal and metaphorical digestion in different spheres of nineteenth-century life. Digestive health is examined in three sections in relation to science, politics and literature during the period, focusing on Northern America, Europe and Australia. Using diverse methodologies, the essays demonstrate that the long nineteenth century was an important moment in the Western understanding and perception of the gastroenterological system and its relation to the mind in the sense of cognition, mental wellbeing, and the emotions. This collection explores how medical breakthroughs are often historically preceded by intuitive models imagined throughout a range of cultural productions.

Download or read book Ecological Literature and the Critique of Anthropocentrism written by Bryan L. Moore and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-10-14 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an analysis of literary texts that question, critique, or subvert anthropocentrism, the notion that the universe and everything in it exists for humans. Bryan Moore examines ancient Greek and Roman texts; medieval to twentieth-century European texts; eighteenth-century French philosophy; early to contemporary American texts and poetry; and science fiction to demonstrate a historical basis for the questioning of anthropocentrism and contemplation of responsible environmental stewardship in the twenty-first century and beyond. Ecological Literature and the Critique of Anthropocentrism is essential reading for ecocritics and ecofeminists. It will also be useful for researchers interested in the relationship between science and literature, environmental philosophy, and literature in general.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Rachel B. Herrmann's No Useless Mouth is truly a breath of fresh air in the way it aligns food and hunger as the focal point of a new lens to reexamine the American Revolution. Her careful scrutiny, inclusive approach, and broad synthesis―all based on extensive archival research―produced a monograph simultaneously rich, audacious, insightful, lively, and provocative."―The Journal of American History In the era of the American Revolution, the rituals of diplomacy between the British, Patriots, and Native Americans featured gifts of food, ceremonial feasts, and a shared experience of hunger. When diplomacy failed, Native Americans could destroy food stores and cut off supply chains in order to assert authority. Black colonists also stole and destroyed food to ward off hunger and carve out tenuous spaces of freedom. Hunger was a means of power and a weapon of war. In No Useless Mouth, Rachel B. Herrmann argues that Native Americans and formerly enslaved black colonists ultimately lost the battle against hunger and the larger struggle for power because white British and United States officials curtailed the abilities of men and women to fight hunger on their own terms. By describing three interrelated behaviors—food diplomacy, victual imperialism, and victual warfare—the book shows that, during this tumultuous period, hunger prevention efforts offered strategies to claim power, maintain communities, and keep rival societies at bay. Herrmann shows how Native Americans, free blacks, and enslaved peoples were "useful mouths"—not mere supplicants for food, without rights or power—who used hunger for cooperation and violence, and took steps to circumvent starvation. Her wide-ranging research on black Loyalists, Iroquois, Cherokee, Creek, and Western Confederacy Indians demonstrates that hunger creation and prevention were tools of diplomacy and warfare available to all people involved in the American Revolution. Placing hunger at the center of these struggles foregrounds the contingency and plurality of power in the British Atlantic during the Revolutionary Era. Thanks to generous funding from Cardiff University, the ebook editions of this book are available as Open Access volumes from Cornell Open (cornellpress.cornell.edu/cornell-open) and other repositories.
