Review

"...a useful and insightful discussion of the evolution of the social and industrial influences on diet and food consumption in the UK." -- Journal of Economic Literature

...the authors provide a useful and insightful discussion of the evolution of the social and industrial influences on diet and food consumption in the UK.
Journal of Economic Literature

Product Description

This text proposes a new interdisciplinary approach to food consumption. Examining the importance of socioeconomic and cultural factors over diet in influencing the production, marketing and consumption of foods, it places food systems theory on sound analytical foundations. This text draws critically from food systems literature, includes relevant case studies from food industries and employs novel statistical techniques to identify and explain distinct patterns of food consumption.
