Because food is everything. Our collection of titles in food studies analyzes the resources and practices that have sustained human societies since their inception. When we eat, we consume not only food on the plate but also the lives and labors of innumerable plants, animals, and people, and the process distributes its costs unevenly across race, class, gender, and other social categories. Our publication program gives home to works in the humanities and social sciences that seek to describe these impacts by using food as a critical lens to examine broader cultural, environmental, and ethical issues.
