Book excerpt: Cet ouvrage est conçu comme une esquisse d'une histoire écologique et ethnologique de l'alimentation humaine. Après avoir brossé à grands traits les aspects écologiques de celle-ci, l'auteur insiste sur l'importance de la révolution culinaire dans l'histoire de l'humanité, révolution ayant précédé, et de loin celle de la domestication des plantes et des bêtes nourricières. Il s'interroge enfin sur les perspectives biologiques, sociales et culturelles de notre alimentation avec ses alternatives de "grande bouffe", de "fast food" et d'émergence de nouvelles gastronomies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A classic text about the social study of food, this is the first English language edition of Jean-Pierre Poulain's seminal work. Tracing the history of food scholarship, The Sociology of Food provides an overview of sociological theory and its relevance to the field of food. Divided into two parts, Poulain begins by exploring the continuities and changes in the modern diet. From the effect of globalization on food production and supply, to evolving cultural responses to food – including cooking and eating practices, the management of consumer anxieties, and concerns over obesity and the medicalization of food – the first part examines how changing food practices have shaped and are shaped by wider social trends. The second part provides an overview of the emergence of food as an academic focus for sociologists and anthropologists. Revealing the obstacles that lay in the way of this new field of study, Poulain shows how the discipline was first established and explains its development over the last forty years. Destined to become a key text for students and scholars, The Sociology of Food makes a major contribution to food studies and sociology. This edition features a brand new chapter focusing on the development of food studies in the English-speaking world and a preface, specifically written for the edition.

Book excerpt: « Que mangeaient les hommes il y a dix mille ans ? Que mangeront les humains dans un siècle ? Comment et où sont apparus le feu, l’agriculture, l’élevage ? Que mangeaient les empereurs romains ? les empereurs chinois ? les rois de France ? Comment mangeaient leurs peuples ? Comment s’expliquent les interdits alimentaires de chaque religion ? Le cannibalisme a-t-il vraiment disparu ? Quels sont les liens entre la sexualité et l’alimentation ? Comment et où sont apparus les restaurants ? Qui a inventé la pizza ? Qui mange des insectes ? Des algues ? Que mangent les plus riches aujourd’hui ? Quels peuples se nourrissent le mieux sur la planète ? Pourra-t-on nourrir sainement dix milliards d’humains ? Serons-nous obligés de manger ce qu’une intelligence artificielle nous imposera ? Mangera-t-on encore ensemble demain ? Cette vaste fresque révèle comment nous sommes passés d’une nourriture variée, naturelle et abondante à des produits alimentaires standardisés, industriels et uniformisés, poisons pour l’homme et la nature. Elle nous dévoile la puissance immense, économique, idéologique et politique, de l’industrie agroalimentaire. Elle nous raconte aussi les liens méconnus entre la nourriture et la conversation, entre l’alimentation et le pouvoir, entre ce que nous mangeons et la géopolitique. Comprendre cette histoire est fondamental, si l’on veut prendre en main sa propre alimentation, manger sain et bon ; et sauver la nature, dont dépend la survie de l’humanité. »J. A.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do we find it necessary to slaughter living animals in order to enjoy their flesh? And why does this act offend our sensibilities, without necessarily making us into vegetarians? We no longer tolerate sacrifices, public butchering during festivals, butchers operating openly in the middle of our cities. Today, animals are killed in invisible abattoirs, set a good distance from our normal activities. This recent separation between the slaughter-house and the butcher's establishment is somehow essential to the modern meat diet. In her study of abattoirs in south-west France, Noélie Vialles brings to light a complex system of avoidances. Her analysis reveals that beyond the specific denial of the work of the abattoirs lies a whole system of symbolic representations of blood, human beings and animals, a symbolic code that determines the way in which we prepare domestic animals for the table.

Book excerpt: Virtues are values underlying human practices. We are at the dawn of a new era, an era of global ethics requiring some core virtues. These core virtues are hospitality, co-living, respect, tolerance, and communality. Book 1 treats the virtue of hospitality that is a right and a duty of all, and which is still to be discovered and practiced unconditionally. Book 2 deals with the virtues of co-living, respect, and tolerance, which are important virtues if the peoples of the earth are to live together in peace in our common home, the planet Earth. Finally, Book 3 deals with the virtue of communality; this is a very important virtue because a large part of humanity experiences hunger and thirst, which is something scandalous in this day and age, and which demonstrates a lack of humanity, because we possess the technical means and political framework to resolve this situation. If these core virtues become a reality, they will transform human practices into something beneficial both to human beings and to the planet Earth, our common home.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Michael Pollan to locavores, Whole Foods to farmers' markets, today cooks and foodies alike are paying more attention than ever before to the history of the food they bring into their kitchens—and especially to vegetables. Whether it’s an heirloom tomato, curled cabbage, or succulent squash, from a farmers' market or a backyard plot, the humble vegetable offers more than just nutrition—it also represents a link with long tradition of farming and gardening, nurturing and breeding. In this charming new book, those veggies finally get their due. In capsule biographies of eleven different vegetables—artichokes, beans, chard, cabbage, cardoons, carrots, chili peppers, Jerusalem artichokes, peas, pumpkins, and tomatoes—Evelyne Bloch-Dano explores the world of vegetables in all its facets, from science and agriculture to history, culture, and, of course, cooking. From the importance of peppers in early international trade to the most recent findings in genetics, from the cultural cachet of cabbage to Proust’s devotion to beef-and-carrot stew, to the surprising array of vegetables that preceded the pumpkin as the avatar of All Hallow’s Eve, Bloch-Dano takes readers on a dazzling tour of the fascinating stories behind our daily repasts. Spicing her cornucopia with an eye for anecdote and a ready wit, Bloch-Dano has created a feast that’s sure to satisfy gardeners, chefs, and eaters alike.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Things which we regard as the everyday objects of consumption (and hence re-purchase), and essential to any decent, civilised lifestyle, have not always been so: in former times, everyday objects would have passed from one generation to another, without anyone dreaming of acquiring new ones. How, therefore, have people in the modern world become 'prisoners of objects', as Rousseau put it? The celebrated French cultural historian Daniel Roche answers this fundamental question using insights from economics, politics, demography and geography, as well as his own extensive historical knowledge. Professor Roche places familiar objects and commodities - houses, clothes, water - in their wider historical and anthropological contexts, and explores the origins of some of the daily furnishings of modern life. A History of Everyday Things is a pioneering essay that sheds light on the origins of the consumer society and its social and political repercussions, and thereby the birth of the modern world.

Dans une fresque historique passionnante qui remonte aux origines de l’humanité, Cyril Laporte et Pierre Joyeau expliquent comment les révolutions alimentaires (sédentarisation au néolithique et industrialisation au XIXe siècle) ont éloigné l’homme de ses besoins fondamentaux, favorisant l’augmentation dramatique des maladies dites « de civilisation » (cancers, diabète, maladies cardiovasculaires, auto-immunes, inflammatoires, etc.). Tout en tenant compte de l’évolution de nos modes de vie, ils mettent en lumière ce dont nous avons réellement besoin pour ne pas tomber malades et nous donnent des clés précieuses pour nous protéger. Il n’est jamais trop tard pour réagir, ne plus subir et prendre notre santé en main. C’est ainsi que nous pourrons faire notre propre révolution alimentaire ! Une enquête fascinante, riche en astuces pratiques à appliquer au quotidien pour vivre longtemps en bonne santé !

Book excerpt: How was human (in)equality built across the table? Why were the first great banquets at the origin of the communal goods of humanity? Who, after forcing men from eating bread, wanted to forbid them chestnuts and popularized the potato? The Egyptian food table invented the notion of "symbols for food." The Greek food table invented the notion of sharing. The Roman food table invented the concept of pleasure. How was the person, caught eating and drinking alone, punished? Why did people die less of hunger in ancient times than in Africa in the 21st century? Why in China do people eat round things to show their love? How and why do we choose to eat this way? Why do societies choose to express their unity through their conception of the food table? Did the division in prehistoric societies first occur at the dinner table? Did the first great civilizations make the food table a major political tool with the rationing and banqueting systems in Mesopotamia and Egypt? Were the Gallic food tables swept away by the political alliance between the Catholic Church and the new masters coming from the great invasions? Did the feudal politico-religious system durably structure our food table? Did absolute monarchy have to invent its own conception of the food table with music, dance and architecture? What were the great French revolutionary conceptions of the food table? Did the philosophy of the Enlightenment change our conception of the food table? Did the French Revolution impose a new way of eating with the adoption of the three-fold table service and the banning of cuisine made with mixtures and knots? Does the grammar of our food correspond to a social project? Was Robespierre afraid of the great popular banquets? Did the Republic enforce the eating of potatoes instead of the "breadfruit tree" (the chestnut tree)? How was the myth of Parmentier imposed on schools? What were the great food utopias in the history of the world? Paul Ariès invites you on a gourmet journey from prehistory to the present day. You will know (almost) everything about what our ancestors ate and drank. The prehistoric food table, the ancient food table, the Gallic food table... Paul Ariès shows how the tables of the world remain largely dependent on the tables of the past. This political history of food is the result of thirty years of teaching and research. Better known as a political scientist specializing in ecology than as a specialist of the food table, Paul Ariès has been teaching since 1988 in the most prestigious international hotel schools. He is the author of La fin des mangeurs (DDB), Les Fils de McDo (L'Harmattan), and Manger sans peur (Golias).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les substances lipidiques ont longtemps été négligées par les physiologistes, mais des recherches épidémiologiques les ont récemment portées sur le devant de la scène, notamment au travers de leur intérêt dans les domaines de la nutrition et surtout de la santé chez l’Homme. Outre leur importance énergétique, les lipides interviennent dans de nombreux mécanismes cellulaires dont les dérèglements peuvent conduire à des pathologies parfois graves. En effet, en plus de leur impact sur les maladies métaboliques, les systèmes cardiovasculaire et immunitaire et les processus de cancérisation, le système nerveux central peut lui aussi être altéré à des degrés divers par une carence ou un déséquilibre entre les constituants lipidiques ingérés. Après quelques rappels historiques sur la découverte des lipides et leur utilisation, une première partie décrit les principaux lipides présents dans notre ration alimentaire. Puis, les besoins avérés ou éventuels de l’Homme en divers acides gras, stérols et vitamines appartenant au groupe des lipides, sont passés en revue. Enfin, l’impact des principaux lipides sur des pathologies naguère encore peu explorées sous cet aspect est exposé en détail. Les lipides – Nutrition et santé présente, de façon synthétique, un très large panorama de toutes les facettes des lipides, des acides gras aux corps gras les moins abondants, mais tout aussi importants pour l’équilibre de notre organisme. Il permet aux spécialistes de revisiter les principales sources de lipides présentes dans notre alimentation en insistant sur leur production et leur composition. Cet ouvrage s’adresse aux chercheurs, médecins généralistes et spécialistes, diététiciens et étudiants évoluant dans de nombreux domaines tels que la biologie cellulaire, la nutrition ou encore la pharmacologie.
