The book animals have been waiting for you to read. A Swiss Army knife for debating.

Alexis Gauthier, Michelin-starred Vegan Chef

Life would have been so much easier if I had had this book when I stopped eating meat 52 years ago. I would have given away lots of copies to my meat-eating friends. If you do still eat meat but aren't sure if there is an ethical justification for doing so, you need to read this book!

Peter Singer, author of Animal Liberation and Animal Liberation Now

Ed Winters builds on his groundbreaking debut book with a follow up that couldn’t be more timely or important. How to Argue With a Meat Eater is an empowering and deeply informative book that will leave readers more enriched and knowledgeable about veganism and how to argue effectively about it. Everyone would benefit from reading this book.

For a long time I’ve wondered where Ed finds the patience to consistently engage in conversations with people who disagree with veganism, but in this hyper-connected, social landscape where we will all inevitably confront our antagonists, the ability to listen to challenging opinions and to have respectful discussions are increasingly essential life skills. In this book, Ed explores the strategy, psychology and intellectual curiosity it takes to not only have a productive conversation about animal rights, but to ensure your energy leaves a memorable impact beyond words. From the all-knowing cynic to the wilfully belligerent, Ed has carefully documented every counter-argument to veganism, and provided a thorough but concise, research-based answers. It’s an essential resource for vegans whose last vestige of patience has deserted them. Don’t go home for the holidays without it!
