From the rear cover
"Albala 's engaging tour through the host of Renaissance dietary theories reminds us that our preoccupations with food and susceptibility to cranky advice about nutrition are nothing new. This is superior scholarship delivered with a light touch."--Rachel Laudan, author of The Food of Paradise: Exploring Hawaii's Culinary Heritage
"This stimulating work is an important contribution to social and especially medical-dietetic history. Albala is the first to explore in detail the role of dietetic literature in the development of the European nation state. His book is a pleasure to read."--Melitta Weiss Adamson, editor of Food in the Middle Ages
