Here, in no particular order (except possibly accidentally chronological) is a highlight of some of the articles I’ve read around the internet this past week. There’s a lot about Eating Animals, which I imagine will be in the news (especially animal rights news) for some time yet to come (right now it’s #49 on Amazon.ca, #51 on Amazon.com, and #14 on the NYT hardcover nonfiction bestseller list).

Enjoy!
