The Surging Humane Economy
I'm excited to launch a national discussion with the American public about the work of The HSUS to address the real costs of cruelty and the great benefits of kindness, with the official launch tonight of The Humane Economy: How Innovators and Enlightened Consumers Are Transforming the Lives of Animals (the on-sale date for bookstores is tomorrow). Tonight, at 7 p.m, we will live-stream my book event at Politics & Prose with U.S. Senator Cory Booker and Washington Post award-winning columnist Kathleen Parker. Tomorrow, I'll head to Philadelphia and to Clinton, N.J., and then on to an event with New York Times columnist Mark Bittman on Wednesday evening at the Barnes & Noble in New York City. After that, I will travel to Connecticut and Boston, where, a week from today, I'll be doing an event with Michael Pollan, a remarkable writer and one of the leaders of the food movement. From there I head west for a series of other events across the country.
