The last 20 years have seen a burgeoning of social scientific and
historical research on food. The field has drawn in experts to
investigate topics such as: the way globalisation affects the food
supply; what cookery books can (and cannot) tell us; changing
understandings of famine; the social meanings of meals - and many
more. Now sufficiently extensive to require a critical overview,
this is the first handbook of specially commissioned essays to
provide a tour d'horizon of this broad range of topics and
disciplines. The editors have enlisted eminent researchers across
the social sciences to illustrate the debates, concepts and
analytic approaches of this widely diverse and dynamic field. This
volume will be essential reading, a ready-to-hand reference book
surveying the state of the art for anyone involved in, and actively
concerned about research on the social, political, economic,
psychological, geographic and historical aspects of food. It will
cater for all who need to be informed of research that has been
done and that is being done.
