Our first food systems, from fire to agriculture, tell where we settled and how civilizations expanded. The quest for food for growing populations drove exploration, colonialism, slavery, even capitalism. A century ago, food was industrialized. Since then, new styles of agriculture and food production have written a new chapter of human history, one that is driving both climate change and global health crises. Bittman offers a panoramic view of the story and explains how we can rescue ourselves from the modern wrong turn. -- adapted from jacket 650 0 $a Food habits $z United States $x History. 650 0 $a Food habits $x Environmental aspects $z United States. 650 0 $a Agriculture $x Social aspects $z United States. 650 0 $a Agriculture $x Environmental aspects $z United States. 941 $a 1 952 $l OPAX566 $d 20231108010328.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=810F1E3E7E0411EE85718D4F22ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b UIRInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
