Diet for a Dead Planet

the long version

"Christopher D. Cook's investigation takes us beyond fast food and GMOs to explain why our entire food system is in crisis." "Food, our most basic necessity, has become a force behind a staggering array of social, economic, and environmental epidemics. Yet there is another way. Taking heart from the promising surge in organics, farmers' markets, and slow food, Cook argues cogently for a whole new way of looking at what we eat - one that places healthy, sustainable produced food at the top of the menu for political change."--BOOK JACKET.
