Summary

"This book is to food what The Federalist Papers were to politics - a primer on the ins-and-outs of food manufacturing and the unethical exercise of power by Big Food and Big Agra. It contains information on the escalating Food Revolution which started with the FDA's approval of genetically engineered seeds in the mid 1990s. This book is a compilation of 40 published blogs, with additional commentary." --Publisher
