Reviews

The book expands on critical animalgeographies by focusing on farmed animals, a category which has been largely overlooked. Further, by addressing hierarchy in human-animal relationships, Geographies of Meat also extends and applies concepts from anarchist geography to farmed animals. In Western societies meat is coming to a crossroads, but is finding new markets elsewhere, mostly in Asia. This makes the timing of Geographies of Meat all the more important. Nathan Poirier Anthrozoology Canisius College, Antipode
