by Paul Freedman (Editor); Joyce E. Chaplin (Editor); Ken Albala (Editor)
From the rear cover
"There is no better introduction to the current vigorous state of food history, no better defense of its interest and intellectual legitimacy, and no better demonstration of how odd it is that the subject needs a defense."--Steven Shapin, Franklin L. Ford Research Professor, History of Science, Harvard University "This book is a treasure. Its clear and lively chapters on global food history instantly explain why food has become an essential entry point into the most intellectually challenging problems of our time. Any reader interested in the role of food in history, culture, or politics, the production or consumption of food, or the teaching of critical thinking will find this book hard to put down."--Marion Nestle, Professor, New York University, and author of Food Politics
