Yet most of us know almost nothing about today's specially bred, commercially produced birds. In this brief book, bestselling author Peter Singer tells their story--and, unfortunately, it's not a happy one. Along the way, he also offers a brief history of the turkey and its consumption, ridicules the annual U.S. presidential \"pardon\" of a Thanksgiving turkey, and introduces us to \"a tremendously handsome, outgoing, and intelligent turkey\" named Cornelius. Above all, Singer explains how we can improve our holiday tables--for turkeys, people, and the planet--by liberating ourselves from the traditional turkey feast. In its place, he encourages us to consider trying a vegetarian alternative--or just serving the side dishes that many people already enjoy far more than turkey. Complete with some delicious recipes for turkey-free holiday feasting, \u003ci\u003eConsider the Turkey\u003c\/i\u003e will make you reconsider what you serve for your next holiday meal--or even tomorrow's dinner.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePeter Singer \u003c\/b\u003eis professor emeritus of bioethics at Princeton University and has been described as the world's most influential philosopher.
