Reviews

The book presents a ... joyous and ... very serious celebration of what eating can bring us in doing philosophy. Journal of Agricultural and Environmental Ethics I Eat, Therefore I Think: Food and Philosophy is a surprising and novel way to approach art, religion, knowledge, ethics, and even democracy. I Eat, Therefore I Think: Food and Philosophy outlines a new philosophy for our time. As such, it will be of interest to people curious about the topic of food, to those interested in learning about philosophy, and to those who seek new ideas as guides for living meaningful lives in an intelligible world. Informed and informative, thoughtful and thought-provoking, I Eat, Therefore I Think: Food and Philosophy is very highly recommended for academic library Philosophy and Anthropology reference collections.
