Reviews

Leighann Chaffee and Stephanie da Silva serve a buffet of enticing topics in the psychology of eating, from anosmia to settling zone theory. Their presentation of content is engaging, cleverly organized, and includes critical topics such as traditional knowledge about food. The authors season the book with helpful background information from related disciplines and plenty of suggestions for the interested reader. * Melissa Birkett, Assistant Professor of Psychology, Southern Oregon University, USA * This volume provides a comprehensive introduction to the psychology of nutrition and food choice. There are many suggestions for those who are intrigued by the material to follow up further. The material successfully navigates the border between laboratory and real-world science, theory, and application. * Charles Spence, Professor of Psychology, University of Oxford, UK *
