Book The Sociology of Food

Download or read book The Sociology of Food written by Jean-Pierre Poulain and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-02-09 with total page 313 pages. 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.

  • Author : Jean-Louis Flandrin

  • ISBN : 023111155X
  • Pages : 642 pages

Download or read book Food written by Jean-Louis Flandrin and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2013-05-21 with total page 642 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When did we first serve meals at regular hours? Why did we begin using individual plates and utensils to eat? When did "cuisine" become a concept and how did we come to judge food by its method of preparation, manner of consumption, and gastronomic merit? Food: A Culinary History explores culinary evolution and eating habits from prehistoric times to the present, offering surprising insights into our social and agricultural practices, religious beliefs, and most unreflected habits. The volume dispels myths such as the tale that Marco Polo brought pasta to Europe from China, that the original recipe for chocolate contained chili instead of sugar, and more. As it builds its history, the text also reveals the dietary rules of the ancient Hebrews, the contributions of Arabic cookery to European cuisine, the table etiquette of the Middle Ages, and the evolution of beverage styles in early America. It concludes with a discussion on the McDonaldization of food and growing popularity of foreign foods today.

Book excerpt: Cet ouvrage répond aux questionnements scientifiques posés sur les effets biologiques des phytomicronutriments (polyphénols, phytostérols, caroténoïdes, glucosinolates…), dans le double contexte de transition nutritionnelle et du vieillissement de la population, et dans le cadre du rôle potentiel de notre alimentation dans la gestion de notre santé. Fruit d'un travail collectif initié par l'Institut français pour la nutrition (IFN) Les phytomicronutriments présente : - une classification des différentes familles de phytomicronutriments, - les principaux facteurs de variation impactant sur les quantités ingérées et sur leur biodisponibilité, car les effets santé des phytomicronutriments dépendent de leurs niveaux de consommation et de leur biodisponibilité, - leur fonctionnalité puis leur impact dans des populations spécifiques (femmes ménopausées, sportifs et personnes âgées), - les bénéfices/risques de quelques classes de molécules, les plus étudiées : phyto-oestrogènes, phytostérols et caroténoïdes, - une illustration de la composition en phytomicronutriments dans des menus types et la possibilité de les repérer dans les aliments sur la base de la couleur de ces derniers. Cet ouvrage s'adresse aux scientifiques, aux professionnels de l'industrie alimentaire, aux professionnels de la santé, aux enseignants et aux étudiants dans le domaine de la nutrition et de la santé.
