Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book examines our relationship with the natural world through the lens of food production. From early human practices to the modern division of labor that allows for specialized roles in feeding communities, the author provides an insightful overview of our food systems. The text is a reminder to appreciate the collective effort required to put food on our tables, promoting the idea that all honest work is worthy of respect. The book argues that respecting the workers involved in food production translates into respecting the food itself, thereby promoting awareness about food waste, which is a major contributor to hunger and poverty around the world. The author calls on readers to enlist in a "Conservation Army" to reduce waste, thereby feeding the hungry and promoting equity. Thoughtful and compelling, this book offers a unique perspective on human interdependence and the challenges and opportunities presented by modern food systems.
