Kritik
"Eating Right in America is a must-read for anyone interested in modern dietary reform. I say that as a scholar who has studied the subject for more than twenty-five years. This concise, well-researched, and provocative book is an instructor's dream, and it is certainly a book that every student and practitioner of nutrition, dietetics, and food science should read and ponder." - Warren Belasco, author of Meals to Come: A History of the Future of Food "This is the book I dreamed of - without having the grown-up words for it - when I was a chubby little kid who rode her bike everywhere and ate her veggies and still got picked on for being fat. A brilliant, intersectional analysis and a thoroughly enjoyable read, Eating Right brings long-overdue skepticism to the insalubrious history of food- and weight-related finger wagging in America." - Marilyn Wann, author of FAT!SO?mehr
