Publisher's Summary

An accessible and balanced account, Food Politics laid the groundwork for today's food revolution and changed the way we respond to food industry marketing practices. Now, a new introduction and concluding chapter bring us up to date on the key events in that movement. This pathbreaking, prize-winning book helps us understand more clearly than ever before what we eat and why.

Critic Reviews

"Combining the scientific background of a researcher and the skills of a teacher, Nestle has made a complex subject easy to understand." ( New York Times)
"If you eat, you should read this book." (Eric Schlosser, author of Fast Food Nation)
"Controversial... Dishes up many of the industry's dirtiest secrets: how multinational companies spend billions to convince us that unhealthy foods are good for us and lobby the government to sway dietary regulations and subsidies in their favor." ( Village Voice
