This introductory text to food studies encourages 'hand-on' learning of concepts from commensality to food systems with the help of scavenger hunts, seed bombs, growing sprouts, and more. Do the learning and enjoy. -- Anna C. Bellows, Syracuse University, USA The field needs an introductory survey textbook like this.
