A sociology of food & nutrition : the social appetite

A Sociology of Food and Nutrition examines the social context of food and nutrition by exploring the socio-cultural, political, economic, and philosophical factors that influence food production, distribution and consumption. Leading authors in the field provide a contemporary analysis of the social factors that underlie food choice. Each chapter includes: an overview, list of key terms, summaries, discussion and essay questions, and recommended web sites and further reading. This third edition includes new chapters from leading international authors: World Hunger (now authored by Frances Moore Lapp); The Politics of Government Dietary Advice (by Jennifer Lisa Falbe and Marion Nestle); Culinary Cultures of Europe: Food, History, Health and Identity (by Stephen Mennell); and Constructing the Female Body: Dieting, the Thin Ideal and Body Acceptance (by Lauren Williams and John Germov). It also includes new sociological reflection exercises, which can be used as self-directed or class-based activities that help students to apply their learning.
