Thoughtful, engrossing . . . You're not likely to get a better explanation of exactly where your food comes from. ( The New York Times Book Review ), If you ever thought 'what's for dinner' was a simple question, you'll change your mind after reading Pollan's searing indictment of today's food industry-and his glimpse of some inspiring alternatives. . . . I just loved this book so much I didn't want it to end. (The Seattle Times), An eater’s manifesto . . . [Pollan’s] cause is just, his thinking is clear, and his writing is compelling. Be careful of your dinner! (The Washington Post), An eater's manifesto . . . [Pollan's] cause is just, his thinking is clear, and his writing is compelling. Be careful of your dinner!

You're not likely to get a better explanation of exactly where your food comes from. (The New York Times Book Review), A brilliant, eye-opening account of how we produce, market, and agonize over what we eat. ( The Seattle Times ), Michael Pollan has perfected a tone-one of gleeful irony and barely suppressed outrage-and a way of inserting himself into a narrative so that a subject comes alive through what he's feeling and thinking. He is a master at drawing back to reveal the greater issues. ( Los Angeles Times ), "Thoughtful, engrossing ...

Synopsis
"Outstanding . . . a wide-ranging invitation to think through the moral ramifications of our eating habits." -- The New Yorker One of the New York Times Book Review's Ten Best Books of the Year and Winner of the James Beard Award * A Kirkus Reviews Best Nonfiction Book of the Century Author of This is Your Mind on Plants, How to Change Your Mind and the #1 New York Times Bestseller In Defense of Food and Food Rules What should we have for dinner? Ten years ago, Michael Pollan confronted us with this seemingly simple question and, with The Omnivore's Dilemma, his brilliant and eye-opening exploration of our food choices, demonstrated that how we answer it today may determine not only our health but our survival as a species. In the years since, Pollan's revolutionary examination has changed the way Americans think about food. Bringing wide attention to the little-known but vitally important dimensions of food and agriculture in America, Pollan launched a national conversation about what we eat and the profound consequences that even the simplest everyday food choices have on both ourselves and the natural world. Ten years later, The Omnivore's Dilemma continues to transform the way Americans think about the politics, perils, and pleasures of eating., "Outstanding . . . a wide-ranging invitation to think through the moral ramifications of our eating habits." -- The New Yorker One of the New York Times Book Review's Ten Best Books of the Year and Winner of the James Beard Award Author of This is Your Mind on Plants, How to Change Your Mind and the #1 New York Times Bestseller In Defense of Food and Food Rules What should we have for dinner?
