Reviews

'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
