書籍簡介

《實例研究》系列內容簡短，設計精美，探索生活中常見物件的鮮為人知的故事，激勵我們重新審視日常生活中我們習以為常的事物。

《實例研究：漢堡》由開拓先鋒女權主義者和動物權利活動家卡羅爾·J·亞當斯（Carol J. Adams）所著，是對普通漢堡包的歷史，商業，文化動態和性別政治的快速而折衷的探索。

長期以來，全美式漢堡正在遭受身份危機。流行文化的轉變到比爾·蓋茨（Bill Gates）等投資者努力創造可以供全世界食用的非動物漢堡，在被扔到烤架上之前，漢堡的身份已經變得像蛋白質本身一樣具有延展性。

Burger, by pioneering feminist and animal rights activist Carol J. Adams, is a fast-paced and eclectic exploration of the history, business, cultural dynamics and gender politics of the ordinary hamburger.

Object Lessons is a series of short, beautifully designed books about the hidden lives of ordinary things.

The burger, long the All-American meal, is undergoing an identity crisis. From its shifting place in popular culture to efforts by investors such as Bill Gates to create the non-animal burger that can feed the world, the burger’s identity has become as malleable as that patty of protein itself, before it is thrown on a grill. Carol Adams’s Burger is a fast-paced and eclectic exploration of the history, business, cultural dynamics, and gender politics of the ordinary hamburger.

Object Lessons is published in partnership with an essay series in The Atlantic.
