1.		The Omnivore's Dilemma: A Natural History of Four Meals from Penguin Price: $10.88 Customer Review: As a teacher and omnivorous reader, I evaluate books in terms of "is this something I wish students would read?" (or- is the time invested worth the knowledge gained?) This one earns a qualified "yes". The qualifier is simply that many of them wouldn't read a non-fiction book of this length without... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


2.	[no image]	The Ethics of What We Eat: Why Our Food Choices Matter from Rodale Books Price: $6.29 Customer Review: I bought this book a few weeks ago and really enjoyed reading it. I think it was thought-provoking. I really liked the way the authors looked at what the families purchased and then discussed the items and their origins. I think that helps the average person to relate to the information. I highly... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


3.		In Defense of Food: An Eater's Manifesto from Penguin Press HC, The Price: $14.93 Customer Review: "Most of what we're consuming today is not food, and how we're consuming it--in the car, in front of the TV, and increasing alone--is not really eating." It is the American paradox that the more we worry about nutrition, the less healthy we seem to become. Pollan explains why this has happened... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


4.		What to Eat from North Point Press Price: $10.88 Customer Review: This is a good all purpose guide to nutrition, including and especially safety concerns. It doesn't just stop with "carrots are a good source of vitamin A, etc" but it goes on to address issues such as how food is processed, handled, and packaged, and how these considerations affect the actual... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


5.		Food Politics: How the Food Industry Influences Nutrition, and Health, Revised and Expanded Edition (California Studies in Food and Culture) from University of California Press Price: $11.53 Customer Review: I purchased this book for a course I am taking in food policy and find it a very readable companion to the course. I think it provides a firm grounding in the underlying structures that shape our food landscape, namely the powerful influence of industry over government.

6.		Animal, Vegetable, Miracle: A Year of Food Life (P.S.) from Harper Perennial Price: $10.17 Customer Review: I really wanted to like this book. I agree with the author in that as a culture we've clearly gotten out of touch with living off the land and have become a fast food society. But I struggled to even get through the first chapter. The tone of the book is much too preachy and pretentious giving it a... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


7.		Agrarian Dreams: The Paradox of Organic Farming in California (California Studies in Critical Human Geography, 11) from University of California Press Price: $20.65 Customer Review: Well, everything you think you know about organic agriculture gets brilliantly demolished and reformulated in this innovative and ground breaking book. Think you know about small family farmers in California? Well, get ready to learn about the real corporate farming tradition, especially in the... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


8.		To Buy or Not to Buy Organic: What You Need to Know to Choose the Healthiest, Safest, Most Earth-Friendly Food from Da Capo Press Price: $10.17 Customer Review: This book is very helpful in figuring out when to buy organic, non-organic and/or local.	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


9.		The Botany of Desire: A Plant's-Eye View of the World from Random House Trade Paperbacks Price: $10.20 Customer Review: It is a rare science book that evokes such an emotional response in me. "Beak of the Finch" by Jonathan Weiner is one, and "The Botany of Desire" is another. Pollan's discussion of four archetypal plants (apple, tulip, marijuana and potato) and our shared history with them makes for some wonderfully... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


10.		Appetite for Profit: How the food industry undermines our health and how to fight back from Nation Books Price: $14.35 Customer Review: I believe that Michele Simon's Appetite for Profit is composed mostly of her opinions. Simon, seems to feel that the governement most regulate what we eat, and how we are marketed product choices. Simon attempts to bring up the issue of the obsity epidemic in America, as soley the fault of large... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information
