Cultural geographers Menzel and D'Aluisio visited 25 families in 21
countries to create this fascinating look at what people around the
world eat in a week. Meet a family that hunts for seal and fish
together; a family that raises and eats guinea pigs; and a family
that drinks six gallons of Coca-Cola a week. Tricycle Press
A stunning photographic collection featuring portraits of 80 people
from 30 countries and the food they eat in one day.
In this fascinating study of people and their diets, 80 profiles
are organized by the total number of calories each person puts away
in a day. Featuring a Japanese sumo wrestler, a Massai herdswoman,
world-renowned Spanish chef Ferran Adria, an American competitive
eater, and more, these compulsively readable personal stories also
include demographic particulars, including age, activity level,
height, and weight. Essays from Harvard primatologist Richard
Wrangham, journalist Michael Pollan, and others discuss the
implications of our modern diets for our health and for the planet.
This compelling blend of photography and investigative reportage
expands our understanding of the complex relationships among
individuals, culture, and food.
