Hardcover, xii + 283 pages, NOT ex-library. A clean and bright copy with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps. Firm secure binding; boards show moderate shelfwear. Published without a dust jacket. --- This book offers a practical guide to the most pressing ethical issues faced by those working in food manufacturing and associated industries.

The book then addresses some issues specifically relevant to the food industry, including treatment of animals; the use of genetically modified organisms; food product advertising; health claims and sustainability.
