📝 Description: Food In Global History (Revised)

This book analyzes processes of change in food ways, moving from a global conception of change through human history, to a comparative study of Chinese and Indian responses over several centuries to new foods from the Americas, and to an assessment of restaurants and travel as agents of change.

Cookbook desk
Raymond Grew's revised volume provides a rigorous, academic examination of how foodways shift over time. It is well-suited for historians and deep-dive researchers of global cuisine who appreciate comparative historical analysis. However, it will decidedly not suit readers looking for practical kitchen techniques, home-cooking inspiration, or narrative-driven food writing. Those seeking a light or instructional cookbook will want to bypass this shelf in favor of more hands-on culinary titles.
