The Absorption Society: Humanity's Quest for Food
14.99 €
Food is one of the primary necessities of life in any society. However, modern people in most cases have a very vague idea of the journey that food takes before it reaches the table.
In his book, journalist and author Mark Bittman analyzes how the quest for sustenance led mankind to slavery, colonialism, famine, genocide, and how we have arrived at the current situation, where the largest food companies are devastating the planet and poisoning its inhabitants by deceiving consumers with surrogate products created for the sake of fabulous profits.
