This book is ideal for readers interested in feminist theory, animal rights, media studies, and cultural criticism. It will particularly engage academics, activists, and anyone questioning the intersection of language, power, and societal attitudes towards women and animals.
"The Pornography of Meat, a visual companion and sequel to the seminal The Sexual Politics of Meat, charts how representations in our culture are evidence of overlapping oppressions of misogyny, white supremacy, homophobia, ableism, and human superiority.

Description
For 30 years, since the publication of her landmark book The Sexual Politics of Meat, Carol J. Adams and her readers have continued to document and hold to account the degrading interplay of language about women, domesticated animals, and meat in advertising, politics, and media. Serving as sequel and visual companion, The Pornography of Meat charts the continued influence of this language and the fight against it.
This new edition includes more than 300 images, most of them new, and brings the book up to date to include expressions of misogyny in online media and advertising, the #MeToo movement, and the impact of Donald Trump and white supremacy on our political language. Never has this book—or Adams's analysis—been more relevant.

Praised by J. M. Coetzee for its powerful examination of masculinity, misogyny, carnivorism, and militarism, this book challenges readers regardless of their views, offering a compelling, often eye-opening perspective. Esteemed sources like the Times Literary Supplement and Toronto Globe and Mail note its readability and insightful critique. Reviewers highlight its ability to reveal the cultural objectification of women and animals, making it enlightening and thought-provoking.
