Vegetarianism seems to be increasing in popularity and acceptance in the United States and Canada, yet, quite surprisingly, the percentage of the population practicing vegetarian diets has not changed dramatically over the past 30 years. People typically view vegetarianism as a personal habit or food choice, even though organizations in North America have been promoting vegetarianism as a movement since the 1850s. This book examines the organizational aspects of vegetarianism and tries to explain why the predominant movement strategies have not successfully attracted more people to adopt a vegetarian identity.Vegetarianism: Movement or Moment? is the first book to consider the movement on a broad scale from a social science perspective. While this book takes into account the unique history of North American vegetarianism and the various reasons why people adopt vegetarian diets, it focuses on how movement leaders' beliefs regarding the dynamics of social change contributes to the selection of particular strategies for attracting people to vegetarianism. In the context of this focus, this book highlights several controversies about vegetarianism that have emerged in nutrition and popular media over the past 30 years.

The Logic of Vegetarianism: Essays and Dialogues is a book written by Henry Stephens Salt in 1906. It is a collection of essays and dialogues that argue for the ethical and practical reasons for adopting a vegetarian lifestyle. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part discussing the moral and philosophical arguments for vegetarianism, while the second part focuses on the practical aspects of vegetarianism, such as nutrition and cooking.Throughout the book, Salt argues that the consumption of meat is not only unnecessary for human health, but also morally wrong due to the cruelty and exploitation involved in animal agriculture. He also critiques the arguments made by those who defend meat-eating, such as the idea that humans are biologically designed to eat meat, and argues that vegetarianism is a more rational and compassionate choice.The dialogues in the book are written in a conversational style, with Salt engaging in debates with fictional characters who represent different perspectives on vegetarianism. These dialogues provide a lively and engaging way to explore the various arguments for and against vegetarianism.Overall, The Logic of Vegetarianism is a thought-provoking and persuasive book that continues to be relevant today, as more and more people are turning to vegetarianism for ethical, environmental, and health reasons.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
