The founder of the Slow Food movement, Carlo Petrini, proposes regaining control of food in the face of industrial production. He argues that food should be good, clean and fair: sustainable, respectful of those who produce it, and healthy and tasty, with examples from Mongolia, Chiapas, Sri Lanka and Puglia.
English translation by Clara Furlan and Jonathan Hunt, with a foreword by Alice Waters. Originally published in Italian as «Buono, pulito e giusto» (2005).
Will appeal to readers of social essays, sustainable food, agriculture and citizens' movements.
