Making sense of taste, food and philosophy

Hungry Books is presented by: Rocio Carvajal Food history writer, cook and author. . Episode 6 The premise of "Empires of food. Feast, famine and the rise and fall of civilisations” is that history has shown us that most civilisations have fallen because of the flaws of their food system and that they have followed a clear pattern, one that our very own civilisation seems to be following to the letter. The authors urge us to look into the history of such food systems to understand the success stories and learn from the many cautionary tales such as the Irish potato famine, the fall of the Roman Empire and the disappearance of the Mayan civilisation. They show us how it is possible to create better-integrated solutions to address the increasing demand for food, managing natural resources, and fixing food inequality. This is a book that requires us to become critical thinkers and engages us with provocative ideas, timely calling us to take action. ?
