Description

For many, the world of food is complicated and riddled with confusion and misinformation. The food system has become so globalized and convoluted that it has become difficult for even the most conscientious reader or eater to feel adequately informed. Wayne Roberts’ No-Nonsense Guide to World Food is a helpful antidote, and an accessible read appropriate for activists, students, or anyone curious about the complex terrain of food politics. This edition of World Food is both informal and informative—qualities known in the “No-Nonsense” book series.
