The myth that Adolf Hitler was an ethical vegetarian refuses to die! Even some misinformed eminent Hitier biographers have asserted that Hitler was not only an ethical vegetarian, but also a vegetarian rawfoodist! Now, vegetarian historian, Rynn Berry, who is the author of such vegetarian classics as Famous Vegetarians and Their Favorite Recipes, and Food For The Gods: Vegetarianism and the World's Religions, adroitly demolishes the seeming paradox that a genocidal tyrant could have been an animal lover and an ethical vegetarian. Eloquently written and thoroughly researched, Hitler: Neither Vegetarian Nor Animal Lover provides a necessary corrective to one of history's biggest and most enduring lies. Book jacket.

"A murder trial ends in a hung jury because of the reasonable doubt of a few jurors who, faced with circumstantial evidence, refuse to judge the accused. Thompson confronts this evasion of judgment through the reexamination of the works of Faulkner, Austen, Tocqueville, Plato, and Aristotle"--Provided by publisher.
Jesus' preaching was first and foremost about simple living, pacifism, and vegetarianism; he never intended to create a new religion separate from Judaism. Moreover, Jesus' radical Jewish ethics, rather than a new theology, distinguished him and his followers from other Jews. It was the earliest followers of Jesus, the Jewish Christians, who understood Jesus better than any of the gentile Christian groups, which are the spiritual ancestors of modern Protestant, Catholic, and Orthodox churches. In this detailed and accessible study, Keith Akers uncovers the history of Jewish Christianity from its origins in the Essenes and John the Baptist, through Jesus, until its disappearance into Islamic mysticism sometime in the seventh or eighth century. Akers argues that only by really understanding this mysterious and much misunderstood strand of early Christianity can we get to the heart of the radical message of Jesus of Nazareth.
When it comes to food, there has never been another city quite like New York. The Big Apple--a telling nickname--is the city of 50,000 eateries, of fish wriggling in Chinatown baskets, huge pastrami sandwiches on rye, fizzy egg creams, and frosted black and whites. It is home to possibly the densest concentration of ethnic and regional food establishments in the world, from German and Jewish delis to Greek diners, Brazilian steakhouses, Puerto Rican and Dominican bodegas, halal food carts, Irish pubs, Little Italy, and two Koreatowns (Flushing and Manhattan). This is the city where, if you choose to have Thai for dinner, you might also choose exactly which region of Thailand you wish to dine...
