درباره این کتاب:
A Pulitzer
Prize-winning correspondent and a former
private investigator dive deep into the
murky waters of the international salmon
farming industry, exposing the
unappetizing truth about a fish that is
not as good for you as you have been
told.
A decade ago, farmed Atlantic salmon
replaced tuna as the most popular fish on
North America’s dinner tables. We are told
salmon is healthy and environmentally
friendly. The reality is disturbingly
different.
In Salmon Wars, investigative
journalists Douglas Frantz and Catherine
Collins bring readers to massive ocean
feedlots where millions of salmon are
crammed into parasite-plagued cages and
fed a chemical-laced diet. The authors
reveal the conditions inside hatcheries,
where young salmon are treated like
garbage, and at the farms that threaten
our fragile coasts. They draw colorful
portraits of characters, such as the big
salmon farmer who poisoned his own
backyard, the fly-fishing activist who
risked everything to ban salmon farms in
Puget Sound, and the American researcher
driven out of Norway for raising the alarm
about dangerous contaminants in the fish.
Frantz and Collins document how the
industrialization of Atlantic salmon
threatens this keystone species, endangers
our health and environment, and lines the
pockets of our generation's version of Big
Tobacco. And they show how it doesn't need
to be this way.
Just as Eric Schlosser’s Fast Food
Nation forced a reckoning with the
Big Mac, the vivid stories, scientific
research, and high-stakes finance at the
heart of Salmon Wars will inspire
readers to make choices that protect our
health and our planet.
