‘Fascinatingly detailed, luxuriously appointed...elegantly conceived, well written, combining proper scholarship with readability, it is a genuinely revelatory contribution to the history of human ideas.’ Daily Telegraph
‘Extraordinary...Stuart writes with flair and intelligence, and this debut shows that he is destined to be a luminous presence in his literary generation...He might even make some converts to vegetariansim itself.’ A.C. Grayling, Independent on Sunday
‘This is intellectual history at its most scintillating, as passionate and vibrant as any swashbuckling romp or perilous adventure.’ Observer

‘Clearly, a staggering amount of research and dedication has gone into this book and its author displays an extraordinary breadth of knowledge and didactic ability...this makes for fascinating and compelling reading.’ Sunday Times
‘Mr Stuart has a relaxed, semi-anecdotal style which repays both careful engagement and lighter dipping...with the balance of an easy style and comprehensive research, he avoids most of the pitfalls of popular histories in which seeming ephemera take centre stage.’ The Economist
‘This well-written book is essential reading for anyone who wishes to get to grips with the philosophical history of vegetarian debate.’ BBC History Magazine
