This arrived today and made my week (month...or even more!).
It's Barbara Katz Rothman's new book A Bun In the Oven: How the Food and Birth Movements Resist Industrialization.
I've only read the first few pages and my mind is going a million miles a minute, making connections, thinking back to my graduate student years when I also studied food and environmentalism and wrote about radical French farmer Jose Bove who, with a group of angry farmers, dismantled a McDonald's under construction.
BUY IT NOW HERE (from NYU Press)!
(You can't buy it yet on Amazon, as it comes out March 22nd. But you can pre-order it here.)
