PETER SINGER | WHY VEGAN? | THE FUTURE OF ANIMAL LIBERATION


Listen Later

This week on the podcast, famed Australian philosopher Peter Singer stopped by to talk about his latest book Why Vegan? and a new academic journal he co-established called The Journal of Controversial Ideas.

The book is a collection of essays from throughout Singer's career on "our failure to confront what we are doing to animals, to public health, and to our planet." The journal -- as the name suggests -- is "a forum for careful, rigorous, unpolemical discussion of issues that are widely considered controversial."

Whether you enjoy Singer's work or you're just interested in veganism and controversial ideas, you are sure to find this episode thought-provoking!
