I have now read”The Vegetarian Myth by Lierre Keith. The author was a vegan for 20 years and became very ill due to malnutrition.
She writes about how agriculture depletes the soil. The vegetarian myths. The problem how to feed the world’s people without continuing to impoverish the soil.
It is a wonderful, interesting and thought-provoking book.

FYI, Keith makes important points about the horrors of modern agriculture as far as factory farming goes, but overall, her book is VERY misleading. Here are a couple of critiques...more coming as REAL scholars bother to take her seriously.
