FOOD AND FREEDOM (HB)

Almost thirty years ago, Carlo Petrini began the Slow Food organisation, inspiring the global fight to revolutionize the way food is grown, distributed, and eaten. If people can regain control over access to their food-how it is produced, by whom, and how it is distributed-then that can lead to a greater empowerment in all channels of life. Whether in the Amazon jungle talking with tribal elders or on rice paddies in rural Indonesia, the author engages the reader through the excitement of his journeys and the passion of his mission.
