Weaving together a social history of the American beef industry with her own account of growing up in the shadow of her grandfather's cattle business, Halley juxtaposes the two worlds and creates a link between the meat industry and her own experience of the formation of gender and sexuality through family violence.

JEAN O'MALLEY HALLEY is an Associate Professor of Sociology in the Departments of Sociology and Anthropology at Wagner College, USA.
