Food The Struggle to Sustain the Human Community by Jake Goldberg 1999 Franklin Watts 208 pp 7 7/8 x 9 3/8 $23.00 hardback ISBN 0-53-114112
Review From Library Journal
Grade 9 Up-The subtitle reveals the serious approach of this book that details the history of food from the earliest life-forms to modern times. Goldberg sees the business of feeding ourselves as a fierce struggle that has shaped our institutions and beliefs and determined the course of history. In essence, he presents a 200-page history of the world as viewed through the issues of food and nutrition. Many geographic regions are treated, with some emphasis on Western civilization. The evolution of agricultural methods plays a major role, as does the economic impact of famines, droughts, and surpluses. Physically, the book looks as serious as its subject matter. Occasional black-and-white photos and illustrations provide the only visual relief in pages and pages of gray text. The writing is clear but dry. Piero Ventra's Food: Its Evolution through the Ages (Houghton, 1994) and Milton Meltzer's Food: How We Hunt and Gather It, How We Grow and Eat It (Millbrook, 1998) offer similar coverage in a livelier, more palatable style.
