"Immer mehr Menschen achten heute auf eine möglichst vegetarische Ernährung mit biologisch hergestellten Lebensmitteln, sie trainieren ihren Körper mit Yoga, Gymnastik und Achtsamkeitsübungen und vertrauen auf naturheilkundliche Behandlungsmethoden. Ihre Freizeit verbringen sie in der freien Natur bei Sport, Wanderungen und Bergtouren und auch ihr Zuhause soll möglichst im Grünen liegen. Die vorliegende Studie untersucht die historischen Ursprünge dieser Suche nach einem gesunden und naturverbundenen Lebensstil in der modernen Gesellschaft. Sie erzählt und analysiert die Geschichte der Lebensreform in der Schweiz zwischen 1850 und 1950 in ihrer dynamischen Vielgestaltigkeit und konzentriert sich im Besonderen auf die Naturheilbewegung, den Vegetarismus, die Jugendbewegung, die Reformpädagogik und die Freiwirtschaft"-- Back cover.

Unlike previous books on the history of vegetarianism, Sins of the Flesh examines the history of vegetarianism in its ethical dimensions, from the origins of humanity through to the present. Full ethical consideration for animals resulting in the eschewing of flesh arose after the Aristotelian period in Greece and recurred in Ancient Rome, but then mostly disappeared for centuries. It was not until the turn of the nineteenth century that vegetarian thought was revived and enjoyed some success; it subsequently went into another period of decline that lasted through much of the twentieth century. The authority-questioning cultural revolution of the 1960s brought a fresh resurgence of vegetarian ethics that continues to the present day.
