Narrator Kimberly Farr captures the earnestness of this classic about how everyday food choices can have long-lasting ramifications. She uses a restrained, precise tone as she explains the rationale behind Lappé's core arguments to consume less meat to help alleviate world hunger. Farr is an excellent choice for this listening experience because her performance inspires further confidence in the author's well-established reputation as an early voice in the meatless revolution. Farr’s relaxed delivery makes this complex topic more easily understandable. For those who are new to Lappé’s work, this is a soft introduction to an ongoing debate about how to curb human consumption of the Earth's resources. M.R. © AudioFile 2022, Portland, Maine
