Описание: A classic study of the beliefs and institutions of mankind, and the progress through magic and religion to scientific thought, The Golden Bough has a unique status in modern anthropology and literature. First published in 1890, The Golden Bough was eventually issued in a twelve-volume edition (1906-15) which was abridged in 1922 by the author and his wife. That abridgement has never been reconsidered for a modern audience. In it some of the more controversial passages were dropped, including Frazer's daring speculations on the Crucifixion of Christ. For the first time this one-volume edition restores Frazer's bolder theories and sets them within the framework of a valuable introduction and notes. A seminal work of modern anthropology, The Golden Bough also influenced many twentieth-century writers, including D H Lawrence, T S Eliot, and Wyndham Lewis. Its discussion of magical types, the sacrificial killing of kings, the dying god, and the scapegoat is given fresh pertinence in this new edition.

In recent years, American shoppers have become more conscious of their food choices and have increasingly turned to CSAs, farmers' markets, organic foods in supermarkets, and to joining and forming new food co-ops. In fact, food co-ops have been a viable food source, as well as a means of collective and democratic ownership, for nearly 180 years.In Food Co-ops in America, Anne Meis Knupfer examines the economic and democratic ideals of food cooperatives. She shows readers what the histories of food co-ops can tell us about our rights as consumers, how we can practice democracy and community, and how we might do business differently. In the first history of food co-ops in the United States, Knupfer draws on newsletters, correspondence, newspaper coverage, and board meeting minutes, as well as visits to food co-ops around the country, where she listened to managers, board members, workers, and members.What possibilities for change—be they economic, political, environmental or social—might food co-ops offer to their members, communities, and the globalized world? Food co-ops have long advocated for consumer legislation, accurate product labeling, and environmental protection. Food co-ops have many constituents—members, workers, board members, local and even global producers—making the process of collective decision-making complex and often difficult. Even so, food co-ops offer us a viable alternative to corporate capitalism. In recent years, committed co-ops have expanded their social vision to improve access to healthy food for all by helping to establish food co-ops in poorer communities.

Описание: Despite being one of the most important meals of the day, breakfast is also the most neglected meal of the day, and this practice increases progressively with age because of lack of time, organization, or individuals preference. Breakfast: Nutrition, Consumption and Health Benefits discusses how a breakfast based on fruits, vegetables, and whole grains can lead to a more favorable lipid profile, contributing to diabetes prevention and control without the harmful effects of eating sugary industrialized foods. The authors advocate that evaluation of breakfast gluten-containing products and their counterparts without gluten is important for people with gluten-related disorders. Additionally, they discuss how visibility of the difficulties faced in the implementation of special menus for children with celiac disease in Brazilian public schools can contribute to making the Human Right to Adequate Food a reality for this group. In closing, the authors assess the importance of finding viable options with sensory and nutritional quality that can be part of the diet of individuals who restrict milk.
"This book is a multidisciplinary masterpiece and the intensely researched examination that the foodways and foodscapes of Singapore deserves. Comprehensive in its examination of changing food practices, this volume powerfully connects consumption, production, built environments, home kitchens, hawker centres, and the sensory experience of food. It is a must read for anyone interested in how a multidisciplinary analysis can enliven the study of food in diverse cities."
Daniel Bender Canada Research Chair in Global Culture and Director Culinaria Research Centre University of Toronto
"In the many reflections for SG50, nothing comes closer to Singapore's identity than the city-state's diversified, multi-ethnic and delectable foods. The 10 chapters in this book are a much welcomed multidisciplinary academic intervention of the quintessential Singaporean passion of eating and snacking. This book savours all its foodscapes, foodways and cuisines through its street foods, hawker centres, kopitiams and restaurants. Singapore's food obsession best undergirds Joseph Nye's 'soft power', an expression of 'Eurasian' cultural fusion, Asian gastronomical delights and cosmopolitan consumption which variously defines Singapore's national identity, its innovative expressions, its tourist beaconing, its recollection of 'sensory heritage', its transcultural involvement, and its global-local statement. Sample Singapore's mouth-watering creativity through its social, cultural, political, historical, and economic taste buds. This is definitely a digestible book worth consuming."
Victor R Savage National University of Singapore
"Journey through kampungs and kopitiams and find out why food is so important in Singapore culture An essential read for anyone seeking to understand Singapore food "
Leslie Tay Author, blogger and self-proclaimed gastro-geek http: //ieatishootipost.sg
"Food, Foodways and Foodscapes is an extraordinary and a rare book that is simultaneously richly descriptive, deeply evocative, and sharply analytical. It provides a welcome and much needed shift in the locus of discussion from the over-written spaces of restaurants and TVs in North Atlantic nations, to the streets, the home, and the web, in a city-state in southeast Asia, which is precisely what makes it theoretically fecund."
Krishnendu Ray New York University & President, Association for the Study of Food & Society
"This is one of the most accessible and comprehensive book to chart Singapore's food history ... It is an excellent starting point for anyone keen to understand the ways in which Singaporeans think about and enjoy, food."
The Sunday Times, Singapore
This fascinating and insightful volume introduces readers to food as a window to the social and cultural history and geography of Singapore. It demonstrates how the food we consume, the ways in which we acquire and prepare it, the company we keep as we cook and eat, and our preferences and practices are all revealing of a larger economic, social, cultural and political world, both historically and in contemporary times. Readers will be captivated by chapters that deal with the intersections of food and ethnicity, gender and class, food hybridity, innovations and creativity, heritage and change, globalization and localization, and more. This is a must-read for anyone interested in Singapore culture and society.

Описание: In recent years, food waste has risen to the top of the political and public agenda, yet until now there has been no scholarly analysis applied to the topic as a complement and counter-balance to campaigning and activist approaches. Using ethnographic material to explore global issues, Food Waste unearths the processes that lie behind the volume of food currently wasted by households and consumers. The author demonstrates how waste arises as a consequence of households negotiating the complex and contradictory demands of everyday life, explores the reasons why surplus food ends up in the bin, and considers innovative solutions to the problem. Drawing inspiration from studies of consumption and material culture alongside social science perspectives on everyday life and the home, this lively yet scholarly book is ideal for students and researchers from a wide range of disciplines, along with anyone interested in understanding the food that we waste.
