Episode 10
Season 1 of Hungry Books Podcast comes to an end with a book that the brings a refreshingly innovative approach to food studies. Tom Standage looks at how food has lead to societal organisation, the creation of geo-political regions, transformation of the landscape, technological revolutions and exploration.
From the transition to a sedentary life and the birth of farming to the political and ideological weaponisation of food policies, the book covers 12,000 years of innovation, war, technology, the rise of civilisations and the paradoxes and crossroads that define our present and indeed our future.
