Life, Death, and Dinner Among the Molluscs

A buffet of vegetables and nuts on the cover of the Routledge Handbook of Sustainable Diets

Food systems need to shift, but how? How might we shape them to nourish humans, animals, and the planet? Edited by Kathleen Kevany and Paolo Prosperi, Routledge Handbook of Sustainable Diets takes these questions to task and gathers 55 chapters that illuminate solutions on environment, health, and well-being, education and public engagement, political processes, and creative approaches to social policies and purposeful design of food environments.

I’m pleased to have had the chance to spotlight shellfish in my chapter “Life, Death, and Dinner Among the Molluscs: Human Appetites and Sustainable Aquaculture.”

This is an absolute meal of a book, which the price unfortunately reflects. And so I would encourage you to ask your local library to order the e-book or pre-order the hardback so that is is available to many. Find out more here.
