The Silent Ark
Juliet Gellatley's hard-hitting personal story is riveting, perceptive and totally persuasive. She exposes the political protection, disinformation and PR glitz which prop up the all-powerful meat industry. It is a journey of discovery which will disturb and anger you. Its logic is simple - through the institutionalised abuse of billions of diseased and dejected animals we are destroying the planet and all that lives on it, impoverishing the poorest and destroying our health for something we don't even need. The Silent Ark is the complete and absolute answer to 'why go vegetarian/vegan?'. Viva!'s No.1 top seller.

Born to be Wild
Animals everywhere would cheer this book if they could - so says Paul McCartney and he's right. It is the blueprint for the great fight back against animal abuse. How to campaign, write letters, organise groups and fight against cruelty. There are great success stories to spur you on and a factual, methodical exposé of every kind of animal abuse on Earth. Furs and farming, hunting and horse racing, fishing and fiestas, circuses and vivisection - the details are here, including some you've never heard of. At times it makes painful reading but it shows that we can all do something to end the shame. Aimed at teenagers but suitable for everyone. A must read!
