About This Book
Here, the man who started the "food revolution" with the
million-plus-selling
Diet for a
New America, boldly posits that, collectively, our
personal diet can save ourselves and the world. If, according to chaos
theory, the beating of a butterfly's wing can cause a hurricane in
another part of the world, try this out for chaotic cause and effect:
monarch butterflies are dying in droves due to genetically-engineered
corn growing in the Midwest. There is also a direct correlation between
the Big Mac in your hand and the mile-wide river now running across the
North Pole. Learn the truth about foods we are eating that are, in
Robbins' words, "unsafe on any plate."
"The Food Revolution has arrived in the nick of time to lead us
toward healthy diets and healthy farms. Readable, poignant, brilliant,
and amazing–this is the book to consult for the health of your family."
–Brent Blackwelder, President, Friends of the Earth
"In The Food Revolution, John Robbins points out that the typical
'American diet' is not only associated with adverse effects on human
health, but with the reprehensible treatment of animals and irreparable
harm to our land and water. Packed with startling facts and provocative
insights, The Food Revolution is compelling reading for anyone
interested in nutritional health, the treatment of animals, or even,
simply, the fate of the planet!" –David L. Katz, M.D., M.P.H., Yale
University School of Medicine
"John Robbins' The Food Revolution is undoubtedly the most comprehensive
and sophisticated study on the political, ethical, and sane choices for
a healthy diet. His candor and compassion guide the reader through
advertising misconceptions to propaganda perpetuated by our food
industry. If you wish to learn how to give your body optimal health, you
had better tune in to the messages in The Food Revolution. " –Dave
Scott, six-time Ironman Triathlon World Champion, first inductee into
the Ironman Hall of Fame, and author of Dave Scott's Triathlon Training
"John Robbins does it again! The Food Revolution is a powerful and
provocative expose of the political, economic, and social realities of
our current food system. It challenges and inspires individuals to
accept responsibility for our choices and to take action for positive
change." –Vesanto Melina and Brenda Davis, registered dietitians,
co-authors of Becoming Vegetarian and Becoming Vegan
"The Food Revolution is the most comprehensive and persuasive argument
ever assembled for a plant-based diet being proper human nutrition. Your
life and the future of humankind may depend upon the spread of John
Robbins' vital message." –John McDougall, M.D., Medical Director of the
McDougall Program at St. Helena Hospital, author of ten national
bestselling books, and host of the nationally syndicated TV Show
McDougall, MD
