Assistant Professor of Philosophy Lisa Kretz's book review of Tovar Cerulli's "The Mindful Carnivore: A Vegetarian’s Hunt for Sustenance" has just been published in the journal Environmental Ethics, which has been referred to as the "major journal in this field...where most of the important papers are published." Cerulli, who was previously vegan, now argues in favor of hunting. Kretz takes issue with his thesis in a variety of ways.
