Food Book


Today, I introduce the book which I chose in the class.
 
Religious Vegetarianism from Hesiod to the Dalai Lama
Edited by Kerry S. Walters and Lisa Portmess
Published by State University of New York Press in 2001

This is a book about vegetarianism. In Japan, there are few vegetarian and we are not so familiar with this topic but some of my foreign friends are vegetarian. I want to know why they stopped eating meat and whether this eating habit is good for health or not. In this book, author consider about vegetarianism in terms of religious. It's very interesting!! I think this book makes me deep think about the life of foods.
