Book The Food and Drink of Sydney

Download or read book The Food and Drink of Sydney written by Heather Hunwick and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2018-03-22 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sydney, famed for its setting and natural beauty, has fascinated from the day it was conceived as an end-of-the-world repository for British felons, to its current status as one of the world’s most appealing cities. This book recounts, and celebrates, the central role food has played in shaping the city’s development from the time of first human settlement to the sophisticated, open, and cosmopolitan metropolis it is today. The reader will learn of the Sydney region’s unique natural resources and come to appreciate how these shaped food habits through its pre-history and early European settlement; how its subsequent waves of immigrants enriched its food scene; its love-hate relationship with alcohol; its markets, restaurants, and other eateries; and, how Sydneysiders, old and new, eat at home. The story concludes with a fascinating review of the city’s many significant cookbooks and their origins, and some iconic recipes relied upon through what is, for a global city, a remarkably brief history.

Book Decoding Your Emotional Appetite

Download or read book Decoding Your Emotional Appetite written by Molly Zemek and published by Morgan James Publishing. This book was released on 2024-04-02 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to Master-certified life coach and Le Cordon Bleu trained chef Molly Zemek, untangling food’s role as a necessary source of nourishment and emotional comfort may be a complicated process, but it is an essential part of personal healing. As a lifelong foodie turned life coach, Molly Zemek spent years pursuing what she calls a “love affair” with food. Her passion for eating and cooking led to her feeling out of control around food and took its toll on her mental and physical health. Compared to others, who seemed to know when they’d eaten enough, Molly felt like she was missing a “stop” button. Once Molly discovered the reasons behind her internal battle with food and herself, she was able to help countless others investigate their relationship with food—empowering them to act without sacrificing the pleasure in eating. Her approach, detailed within Decoding Your Emotional Appetite, offers a unique perspective on food and wellness for anyone seeking to better understand their eating habits. Decoding Your Emotional Appetite addresses the many reasons people eat—beyond fuel. With the lessons she learned from her own weight-loss journey, and those of her clients, Molly Zemek helps health and food enthusiasts identify what’s at the heart of their eating, in order to create the relationship they want with food and themselves.

  • Release : 2017-10-02
  • ISBN : 1317369106
  • Pages : 160 pages

Download or read book Big Food written by Simon N. Williams and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-10-02 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Obesity is a global public health problem of crucial importance. Obesity rates remain high in high-income countries and are rapidly increasing in low- and middle- income countries. Concurrently, the global consumption of unhealthy products, such as soft drinks and processed foods, continues to rise. The ongoing expansion of multinational food and beverage companies, or ‘Big Food’, is a key factor behind these trends. This collection provides critical insight into the global expansion of ‘Big Food’, including its incursion into low-and-middle income countries. It examines the changing dynamics of the global food supply, and discusses how low-income countries can alter the ‘Big Food’-diet from the bottom-up. It examines a number of issues related to ‘Big Food’ marketing strategies, including the way in which they advertise to youths and the rural poor. These issues are discussed in terms of their public health implications, and their relation to public health activities, for example ‘soda taxes’, and the promotion of nutritionally-healthier products. This book was originally published as a special issue of Critical Public Health.

Download or read book Child s Play written by Michael A. Messner and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2016-05-01 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is sport good for kids? When answering this question, both critics and advocates of youth sports tend to fixate on matters of health, whether condemning contact sports for their concussion risk or prescribing athletics as a cure for the childhood obesity epidemic. Child’s Play presents a more nuanced examination of the issue, considering not only the physical impacts of youth athletics, but its psychological and social ramifications as well. The eleven original scholarly essays in this collection provide a probing look into how sports—in community athletic leagues, in schools, and even on television—play a major role in how young people view themselves, shape their identities, and imagine their place in society. Rather than focusing exclusively on self-proclaimed jocks, the book considers how the culture of sports affects a wide variety of children and young people, including those who opt out of athletics. Not only does Child’s Play examine disparities across lines of race, class, and gender, it also offers detailed examinations of how various minority populations, from transgender youth to Muslim immigrant girls, have participated in youth sports. Taken together, these essays offer a wide range of approaches to understanding the sociology of youth sports, including data-driven analyses that examine national trends, as well as ethnographic research that gives a voice to individual kids. Child’s Play thus presents a comprehensive and compelling analysis of how, for better and for worse, the culture of sports is integral to the development of young people—and with them, the future of our society.
