"Much of the grain that could amply feed the world's six billion inhabitants is siphoned off to feed livestock and satisfy the meat-eating demands of the wealthiest parts of the world. New technologies promise to increase production, but their safety remains to be proven. The Penguin Atlas of Food addresses these and other issues in an accessible, inviting format, showing how the food chain is affected by historical events, political economy, natural disasters, and changing lifestyles. It charts the impact these changes have on different socioeconomic groups and weighs future projections against past trends. With ninety-six pages of maps and graphics, this easy-to-use resource is an essential guide to understanding the role of food in modern life."--Jacket.
