'A visionary look at how quality food should replace money as the new world currency' Tim
Spector 'Hugely ambitious and beautifully written...destined to become a modern classic' Bee
Wilson How we search for make and consume food has defined human history. It transforms our
bodies and homes our politics and our trade our landscapes and our climate. But by forgetting
our culinary heritage and relying on cheap intensively produced food we have drifted into a
way of life that threatens our planet and ourselves. What if there were a more sustainable way
to eat and live? Drawing on many disciplines as well as stories of the farmers designers and
economists who are remaking our relationship with food this inspiring and deeply thoughtful
book gives us a provocative and exhilarating vision for change and points the way to a better
future. 'Utterly brilliant' Thomasina Miers WINNER OF THE 2021 GUILD FOOD OF WRITERS AWARD FOR
