Tony Weis, author of the ground-breaking The Global Food Economy, shows what this means for the health of the planet, how it contributes to worsening human inequality, and how it constitutes a profound but invisible aspect of the violence of everyday life. 606 $aLivestock systems$xEnvironmental aspects 606 $aLivestock$xEnvironmental aspects 606 $aMeat industry and trade$xEnvironmental aspects 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aLivestock systems$xEnvironmental aspects. 615 0$aLivestock$xEnvironmental aspects. 615 0$aMeat industry and trade$xEnvironmental aspects. 676 $a338.176 700 $aWeis$b Anthony John$f1973-$0945332 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910452961703321 996 $aThe ecological hoofprint$92134171 997 $aUNINA
