Here, Wm. Alex McIntosh analyzes the relationship between food and
nutrition and social factors, using a wide array of sociological
theories. The author applies theories of social organization,
culture, social stratification, social change, rural sociology, the
sociology of the body, and social problems to empirical problems in
food and nutrition. By doing so, he sheds light on issues such as
the rise of the state; population growth; famine; obesity; eating
disorders; the maldistribution of food across class, gender, and
ethnic boundaries; and the changing nature of the food industry.
