The Omnivore's Dilemma :Michael Pollan This book is a journalistic project that traces a several different paths that food travels in America today. The author follows the production of one meal from an industrial, an industrial organic, a small-scale pastoral, and a hunter-gatherer's perspective while providing the history and context for each in this country. The book provides a great overarching view the food system and dispells many of the mysterys and myths of how we as a nation feed ourselves and what that means for the environment and the people who make a living on food production. The book also provides a great starting place for people interested in making food production more sustainable in the section on small-scale pastoral.
