Ravenous: How to get ourselves and our planet into shape

WINNER OF THE ANDR É SIMON FOOD BOOK AWARD 2023 SHORTLISTED FOR THE GUILD OF FOOD WRITERS AWARDS 2024 THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER ‘Brilliant – a must read’ Tim Spector ‘ Ravenous is a truly important book … we need a food revolution to ensure children don’t go hungry, eat right, and reach their potential’ Tom Kerridge The food system is no longer simply a means of sustenance. It is one of the most successful, most innovative and most destructive industries on earth. It sustains us, but it is also killing us. Diet-related disease is now the biggest cause of preventable illness and death in the developed world – far worse than smoking. The environmental damage done by the food system is also changing climate patterns and degrading the earth, risking our food security. In Ravenous , Henry Dimbleby takes us behind the scenes to reveal the mechanisms that act together to shape the modern diet – and therefore the world. He explains not just why the food system is leading us into disaster, but what can be done about it. – ASIN: 1800816529 | ISBN13: 9781800816527 | ISBN-13: 978-1800816527
