How the World Eats

In this wide-ranging and definitive book, philosopher Julian Baggini delves into the best and worst food practices in various societies around the world, past and present.

He examines cutting-edge technologies like new farming methods, cultured meat, GM food, and astronaut food, as well as the ethics and health implications of ultra-processed food and aquaculture.

Baggini also critiques the effectiveness of food governance, the challenges of food wastage, and the effects of commodification.

The book advocates for a sustainable and equitable global food system fit for the twenty-first century and beyond.
