'Written in an engaging and accessible style, this book presents a revealing and highly original account of the historical evolution of the organic farming and food movement. It is a welcome counterpoint to the many political economic analyses of organic farming and food that are now available.' - Carol Morris, University of Nottingham, UK 'Well-informed organic campaigners and strategists may find food for thought in Matthew Reed's whirlwind ride through some aspects of organic history, in Rebels for the Soil: The Rise of the Global Organic Food and Farming Movement.' - Erin Gill, Soil Association 'Thought-provoking' - Erin Gill, Soil Association 'It is in these strands that the book is at its strongest; in his thoughts about organic and the politics of food and indeed wider politics, the theme of citizenship and what a regenerated organic movement could have to offer, Matt Reed makes a valuable contribution that is well worth reading.' - ORC Bulletin, Dec 2010 ...the book is very interesting and I would recommend it to anyone interested in the development of social movements in general and the organic food and farming movement in particular - Alan Renwick, Experimental Agriculture
