'The foundational text that allowed us to re-understand food' Chris van Tulleken
Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants.
Michael Pollan devised his famous seven-word philosophy for healthy eating after the remarkable success of The Omnivore's Dilemma. Twenty years later, his investigation of the journey that food takes - from the soil to the plate - remains as urgent and topical as ever. This is the classic work that kick-started the global discussion of food quality and ethics.
This edition includes a new introduction in which Pollan shows how his arguments are more timely than ever, touching on ultra-processed food, the impact of climate change and healthy eating movements around the world.
