Description

The Food System by Routledge provides a deep look into the massive global industry and the many different interests of the key players involved. This book examines the complex landscape of food production and consumption, from the corporate drive for profitability in wealthy nations to the basic necessity of food access for the poor. As biotechnology and information technology change how we produce and distribute what we eat, understanding the context of these actors is more important than ever. This text explores the tension between maintaining market demand and the need to promote healthy diets and food safety. It is an essential resource for understanding how the world can move toward a future where all people have access to safe and secure food supplies. Whether you are studying public health, economics, or global development, this book offers the necessary perspective on the forces shaping our global food supply.
