        Food Myths and the Rapid Change of Food Culture

        by Manfred Kriener

        This book is not a manual but provides an information kit so we can find our way intelligently and make decisions. Nutrition is a constant talking point, but often there is a lack of knowledge and judgement. Amidst this confusion of facts, Manfred Kriener clarifies the rapid change of our food culture. He covers the entire range from the vegan trend to insect food, from aquaculture to cultured meat. Kriener also focuses on the various obscure quality seals, chaotic labelling on the wine rack and our inconsistency as consumers. The new world of food in eleven chapters, spicy at times, but plenty of food for thought and to whet the appetite.

        The fall and rise of the English upper class

        The fall and rise of the English upper class

        Houses, kinship and capital since 1945

        by Daniel R. Smith

        The fall and rise of the English upper class explores the role traditionalist worldviews, articulated by members of the historic upper-class, have played in British society in the shadow of her imperial and economic decline in the twentieth century. Situating these traditionalist visions alongside Britain's post-Brexit fantasies of global economic resurgence and a socio-cultural return to a green and pleasant land, Smith examines Britain's Establishment institutions, the estates of her landed gentry and aristocracy, through to an appetite for nostalgic products represented with pastoral or pre-modern symbolism. It is demonstrated that these institutions and pursuits play a central role in situating social, cultural and political belonging. Crucially these institutions and pursuits rely upon a form of membership which is grounded in a kinship idiom centred upon inheritance and descent: who inherits the houses of privilege, inherits England.

        The works of Richard Edwards

        Politics, poetry and performance in sixteenth century England

        by Paul Edmondson, Rosalind King, Martin White

        The heart of this book is its fully annotated, critical editions of the surviving work of Richard Edwards, one of the most influential poets and dramatists writing in England before Shakespeare. Ros King's extensive introduction, identifying the holes in the documentary evidence that might accommodate this important but now little known writer, rewrites the history of pre-Shakespearean drama, illustrates new approaches to sixteenth-century prosody and to the modernisation of dramatic poetry, and re-evaluates the public role of theatre and poetry during a particularly turbulent period in English history. While it will be essential reading for specialist scholars, it will also be of much wider interest. The introduction is highly accessible which makes it an appropriate text-book for students in a field where few textbooks are available. It will appeal to the current appetite among the reading public for biography, while the play, poems and songs are themselves very appealing. ;

        Managing Events, Festivals and the Visitor Economy

        Managing Events, Festivals and the Visitor Economy

        Concepts, Collaborations and Cases

        by Michael B. Duignan

        This edited text, intended to support a research-informed approach to learning and teaching, presents an array of concepts, collaborations and in-depth cases related to managing events, festivals and the visitor economy. Authors offer an array of philosophical, political, cultural, and ethical perspectives on how to achieve this across a range of contexts, from Cambodia, China, Egypt to the British cathedral city of Lincoln. Though recognising individual difference, each chapter unites in their common pursuit of supporting the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UNSDGs). This is significant as utilising the UNSDGs as a normative organising framework for how we all think about, plan, and manage a 'good' visitor economy is increasingly ubiquitous. It is with this in mind that each chapter provides explicit links to the UNSDGs and policy and/or practical implications, along with a series of critical self-assessment questions to reflect on the chapter's key arguments. This collection aims to satiate what appears to be an increasing appetite of readers and students alike who seek exposure to rigorous debate in and out of the classroom.

        Nutrition and Feeding Organic Cattle

        by Robert Blair

        Organic cattle farming is on the increase, with consumer demand for organic milk and meat growing yearly. Beginning with an overview of the aims and principles behind organic cattle production, this book presents extensive information about how to feed cattle so that the milk and meat produced meet organic standards, and provides a comprehensive summary of ruminant digestive processes and nutrition. Since the publication of the first edition, global consumers have increasingly become concerned with the sustainability of meat production. Here, Robert Blair considers the interrelationships of sustainable practices and profitability of organic herds, reviewing how to improve forage production and quality, and minimizing the need for supplementary feeding using off-farm ingredients. This new edition also covers: - Managing a recurrent shortage of organic feed ingredients, due to increased GM feed crop cultivation worldwide - Current findings on appropriate breeds and grazing systems for forage-based organic production - Diet-related health issues in organic herds and the effects of organic production on meat and milk quality. Required reading for animal science researchers, advisory personnel that service the organic milk and beef industries and students interested in organic milk and meat production, this book is also a useful resource for organic farming associations, veterinarians, and feed and food industry personnel.

        Dem langen Lulatsch rutschen die Hosen runter

        Dem langen Lulatsch rutschen die Hosen runter

        by Israel (Poocho) Wiesler

        Dem langen Lulatsch rutschen die Hosen runter von Israel Wiesler Der kleine Held ist dünner Kostverächter, der so mager ist, dass ihm beständig die Hose herunter rutscht. Als er dann aber zu essen beginnt, kennt sein Appetit keine Grenzen. Jetzt platzen ihm die Hosen aus allen Nähten. Ein Dilemma, doch seine findige Mutter weiß Rat. Das Buch verkauft sich außergewöhnlich gut und ist seit zehn Jahren, mittlerweile mit der zwölften Auflage, auf dem israelischen Buchmarkt. Die Nachfrage stieg merklich, seit die Zahl der übergewichtigen Kinder und dementsprechend das Problembewußtsein bei Eltern und Kindern zunahm. Zwar hat die Geschichte eine Moral, doch ihr großer Erfolg beruht auf der für Kinder sehr vergnüglichen Erzählweise. Israel Wiesler wurde in Tel Aviv geboren und lebt dort bis heute. Er veröffentlichte sein erstes Buch mit sechsundzwanzig. „What a Gang“ entwickelte sich zum preisgekrönten Bestseller und wurde mit großem Erfolg verfilmt. Seitdem hat Wiesler mehr als dreißig Bücher geschrieben und Dutzende von Drehbüchern für Fernsehserien, vor allem für Jugendliche, verfaßt. Wieslers Werke zeichnen sich durch einen eigenwilligen verständnisvollen Humor aus und wurden bereits mit sechs israelischen Literaturpreisen bedacht. Das angesehene „Ofek Lexikon“ für hebräische Kinderliteratur nennt Wiesler „ ... den besten Humoristen für Kinder und Jugendliche in Israel.“ Puuju, wie Wiesler von seinem Publikum liebevoll genannt wird, ist einer der drei israelischen Autoren, denen der Staat im vergangenen Jahr eine Briefmarke widmete.

Obesity ranks as a killer before smoking or high blood pressure. A direct analysis of a man-made epidemic that is dominated by a few large companies and kept going by multiple profiteers.

        Nutrition and Feeding of Organic Poultry

        by Robert Blair

        Organic poultry production has increased significantly in recent years to keep up with increasing consumer demand for organic eggs and meat. There are many guidelines and restrictions on what should go into the feed of organically-farmed poultry, from which difficulties arise when trying to ensure a well-balanced nutritious diet without the use of any unapproved supplements. This, the second edition of Robert Blair's classic and bestselling book on the nutrition and feeding of organic poultry, presents advice for organic producers, and the agencies and organizations serving them. It covers: - Selecting suitable ingredients. - Preparing appropriate feed mixtures and integrating them into organic poultry production systems. - International standards for organic feeding. - Breeds that are most suitable for organic farming. - Examples of diets formulated to organic standards. Completely updated and revised to address how to formulate organic diets in situations where there is a declining supply of organic feed, this new edition also includes up-to-date information on the nutritional requirements of poultry and feed-related disease incidence in organic flocks. Also including the feasibility of utilizing novel feed, such as insect meal, and their acceptability by consumers of organic meat products, this book forms a comprehensive reference for students, organic farmers, veterinarians and researchers.
