Description
Sitopia: How Food Can Save the World by Carolyn Steel
Food has shaped our world in profound ways, from the hunter-gatherer ancestors who first foraged for sustenance to the modern cities where industrial food production dominates. Yet, by forgetting its value, we have drifted into a way of life that threatens our planet and ourselves.
This book offers a provocative vision for change, drawing on insights from philosophy, history, architecture, literature, politics, and science, as well as stories of farmers, designers, and economists who are remaking our relationship with food. Carolyn Steel points the way to a better future, one that thrives in harmony with our crowded and overheating planet.
