"Slow Cooked tells the story of how Marion Nestle achieved a late-in-life career as a leading public advocate for healthier and more sustainable diets. Coming of age in post-World War II America, she had to overcome the barriers--familial, societal, and institutional--experienced by all women in that era. Here, she explains how she came to recognize the enormous influence of the food industry on our food choices, and wrote Food Politics and her other books about the politics of food, nutrition, and health. This is one woman's story with great relevance for anyone who eats"-- Provided by publisher.
