The Ethics of Diet: A Biographical History of the Literature of Humane Dietetics, from the Earliest Period to the Present Day is a book written by Howard Williams and first published in 1907. The book is a comprehensive exploration of the history of humane dietetics, tracing the development of dietary practices and the literature surrounding them from ancient times to the early twentieth century.The author examines the ethical and moral considerations involved in the choices people make about what they eat, and how these choices have evolved over time. He explores the various philosophical, religious, and cultural beliefs that have influenced dietary practices, and the ways in which these beliefs have been expressed in literature.The book includes biographical sketches of many prominent figures in the history of humane dietetics, including Pythagoras, Plutarch, Leonardo da Vinci, Benjamin Franklin, and Henry David Thoreau. Williams also discusses the work of many lesser-known writers and thinkers who have contributed to the literature of humane dietetics.Overall, The Ethics of Diet is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in the history of dietary practices and the ethical considerations surrounding them. It provides a valuable perspective on the ways in which our understanding of food and nutrition has evolved over time, and the ongoing debates and discussions about what constitutes a humane and ethical diet.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
