Negative Ecologies: Fossil Fuels and the Discovery of the Environment
by David BondSo much of what we know of clean water, clean air, and now a stable climate rests on how fossil fuels first disrupted them. Negative Ecologies is a bold reappraisal of the outsized role fossil fuels have played in making the environment visible, factual, and politically operable in North America. Following stories of hydrocarbon harm that lay the groundwork for environmental science and policy, this book brings into clear focus the dialectic between the negative ecologies of fossil fuels and the ongoing discovery of the environment. Exploring iconic sites of the oil economy, ranging from leaky Caribbean refineries to deepwater oil spills, from the petrochemical fallout of plastics manufacturing to the extractive frontiers of Canada, Negative Ecologies documents the upheavals, injuries, and disasters that have long accompanied fossil fuels and the manner in which our solutions have often been less about confronting the cause than managing the effects. This history of our present promises to re-situate scholarly understandings of fossil fuels and renovate environmental critique today. David Bond challenges us to consider what forms of critical engagement may now be needed to both confront the deleterious properties of fossil fuels and envision ways of living beyond them.
Neglected Plant Foods Of South Asia: Exploring and valorizing nature to feed hunger
by Tariq Ismail Saeed Akhtar Claudia E. LazarteAccording to the global hunger index, South Asia has worldwide highest rate of undernourished people. Such a burden of food insecurity and various forms of malnutrition are directly associated with the existing food production system that ignores biodiversity, food affordability, and sustainability. During the last five decades, food production system has witnessed a global shift from ethnic to mainstream staple cereals production and promotion. Such an approach has badly affected the regional genetic pool of a diverse range of nourishing, economical, and sustainable edible plant species which are now referred to as neglected or underutilized food crops. Neglected Plant Foods of South Asia collects and preserves existing knowledge of underutilized, minor, wild, neglected and traditional food plants of South Asia, and their utilization for the production of value-added food products. Aiming at introducing plant – based food solutions to address the increasing burden of food insecurity among marginalized communities of South Asia, this manuscript covers a plethora of nutrient-dense plant species including fruits, vegetables, roots, tubers, cereals, pseudo-cereals, and pulses. In addition to having an overview of each plant's origin, cultivation practices and production statistics, researchers will find comprehensive information on nutritional composition, food manufacturing properties, value-addition and traditional uses of neglected plant foods. Recent updates on strategies to combat toxicological risks associated with the consumption of neglected food plants have also been included. With this volume, researchers will have complete information on neglected, underutilized traditional edible plants of South Asia, and their potential to increase food security under the emerging challenges of climate change.

Nella Terra della Tortilla: Un Viaggio alla Ricerca dell' Autenticità
by Paul ReadLa vita ha l’abitudine di farci trovare sulla strada degli ostacoli, ma per una buona ragione: nascono per sfidare chi è scoraggiato, o per dissuadere i pigri. In ogni caso, quando ti imbatti in una città che le guide turistiche hanno ignorato, ti trovi a dover scegliere tra il proseguire velocemente per la tua strada o fermarti a vedere che cosa possono essersi lasciate sfuggire. Quando un uomo e il suo cane voltano le spalle al Mar Mediterraneo e danno inizio a un viaggio verso l’entroterra del Profondo Sud, lo fanno per andare alla ricerca di una città che ancora prepari il suo proprio cibo piuttosto che procurarselo da altrove. Stanchi della natura usa e getta della vita moderna e del suo entusiasmo per il cibo precotto da microonde, questa ricerca di ricette autentiche rivela non solo una serie di segreti gastronomici, ma la ricchezza di storia, cultura, politica e abitudini alimentari di un paese carismatico colto nell’intento di uscire da un passato buio e di dirigersi verso la luce abbagliante del futuro.

The Neoliberal Diet: Healthy Profits, Unhealthy People
by Gerardo OteroThis “remarkable, comprehensive” study of neoliberal agribusiness and the obesity epidemic “is critical reading for food studies scholars” (Contemporary Sociology). <p><p> Obesity rates are rising across the United States and beyond. While some claim that people simply eat too much “energy-dense” food while exercising too little, The Neoliberal Diet argues that the issue is larger than individual lifestyle choices. Since the 1980s, the shift toward neoliberal regulation has enabled agribusiness multinationals to thrive by selling a combination of meat and highly processed foods loaded with refined flour and sugars—a diet that originated in the United States. Drawing on extensive empirical data, Gerardo Otero identifies the socioeconomic and political forces that created this diet, which has been exported around the globe at the expense of people’s health. <p><p> Otero shows how state-level actions, particularly subsidies for big farms and agribusiness, have ensured the dominance of processed foods and made fresh foods inaccessible to many. Comparing agrifood performance across several nations, including the NAFTA region, and correlating food access to class inequality, he convincingly demonstrates the structural character of food production and the effect of inequality on individual food choices. Resolving the global obesity crisis, Otero concludes, lies not in blaming individuals but in creating state-level programs to reduce inequality and make healthier food accessible to all.
