Ravenous by Henry Dimbleby
How to Get Ourselves and Our Planet into Shape
A lively, investigative look at how the ways we produce, buy and eat food have created overlapping crises for human health, the environment and rural communities, blending history, reportage and interviews to show how current systems evolved and who benefits. It traces the roots of cheap, processed diets and intensive agriculture, exposes the economic and policy incentives that drive waste and inequality, and connects everyday habits—what we feed our children, what farmers are paid—to planetary outcomes. Throughout the book the author mixes personal travel and conversations with chefs, farmers and scientists with clear explanations of complex supply chains, and makes a practical case for systemic reforms—changes in farming, food policy, schooling and business—that could deliver healthier diets and a more sustainable food system.
