You cover all sorts of complex philosophical ideas, and then it turns out that the images and videos are what make all the difference. Probably the most effective pages in "Animal Liberation" are the pictures in the middle!

Each time there were students who found it too distressing and walked out in the middle. I didn't show the film in subsequent years in part because I felt uneasy about confronting students so brutally. (Should I say instead "with brute reality"?)

In any case, no doctor who hasn't the results from all blood tests and any other laboratory procedures can say what a patient should or should not eat.
