Stand Together or Starve Alone: Unity and Chaos in the U.S. Food Movement
by Mark WinneAmerica has a perplexing, multifaceted problem that combines hunger, obesity, and unhealthy food. This book examines how this situation was created and shows how people working together can resolve this longstanding issue.The United States—one of the world's wealthiest and resource-richest nations—has multiple food-related problems: declining food quality due to industrialization of its production, obesity across all age groups, and a surprisingly large number of households suffering from food insecurity. These issues threaten to shorten the lives of many and significantly reduce the quality of life for millions of others. This book explores the root causes of food-related problems in the 20th and 21st centuries and explains why collective impact—the social form of working together for a common goal—is the method that needs to be employed to reach a successful resolution to hunger, obesity, and the challenges of the industrial food system. Authored by Mark Winne, a 45-year food activist, the book begins with background information about the evolution of the U.S. food movement since the 1960s that documents its incredible growth and variety of interests, organizations, and sectors. The subsequent sections demonstrate how these divergent interests have created a lack of unity and constitute a deterrent to achieving real change and improvement. Through examples from specific cities and states as well as a discussion of group dynamics and coalition-building methods, readers will come away with an understanding of a complicated topic and grasp the potential of a number of strategies for creating more cohesion within the food movement—and realizing meaningful improvements in our food system for current and future generations.

Part Fast Food Nation, part social history, STARBUCKED combines investigative heft with witty cultural observation. How did Starbucks become an international juggernaut? What made the company so beloved that more than 40 million customers visit every week, yet so loathed that protestors have firebombed its stores?

Taylor Clark provides an objective, meticulously reported look at how Starbucks manipulates psyches and social habits to snare loyal customers, and why many of the things we think we know about the coffee chain are false.

Starch: Advances in Modifications, Technologies and Applications
by Vijay Singh Sharanagat Dharmesh Chandra Saxena Kshitiz Kumar Yogesh KumarStarch is one of the major components responsible for the structure of final food products. A recent report by Industrial Starch Market predicts the industrial starch market to reach about 106.64 billion by 2022. The major portion of the starch volume will be contributed by conventional sources like maize, wheat and potato. These native starch sources are well capable to meet the industrial requirements. However, modification of starch brings lot of positive changes in functional and structural properties of starch. As compared to their native counterparts, modified starches are gaining a significant market growth due to their enhanced functionalities and applications. Starch: Advances in Modifications, Technologies and Applications provides comprehensive coverage of the most recent advances in the modification techniques, their impact on functionality of starch and potential application food industries. Starch is a vital ingredient for food processing industries and it has been covered thoroughly in different books. However, none of the books currently on the market have covered the most recent advances in modification techniques and their derivatives including the functional, engineering, thermo-pasting, rheological, structural and morphological properties of starch. This text comprehensively covers almost all the starch modifications, reviewing the derivatives of modification techniques and compiling all the changes in properties to provide an understanding and perspective of these innovative applications. From the history of starch production to current chemical and physical modifications, this book offers researchers all the information they need on starch modifications in a single source.

States of Subsistence: The Politics of Bread in Contemporary Jordan (Stanford Studies in Middle Eastern and Islamic Societies and Cultures)
by José Ciro MartínezOn any given day in Jordan, more than nine million residents eat approximately ten million loaves of khubz 'arabi—the slightly leavened flatbread known to many as pita. Some rely on this bread to avoid starvation; for others it is a customary pleasure. Yet despite its ubiquity in accounts of Middle East politics and society, rarely do we consider how bread is prepared, consumed, discussed, and circulated—and what this all represents. With this book, José Ciro Martínez examines khubz 'arabi to unpack the effects of the welfare program that ensures its widespread availability. Drawing on more than a year working as a baker in Amman, Martínez probes the practices that underpin subsidized bread. Following bakers and bureaucrats, he offers an immersive examination of social welfare provision. Martínez argues that the state is best understood as the product of routine practices and actions, through which it becomes a stable truth in the lives of citizens. States of Subsistence not only describes logics of rule in contemporary Jordan—and the place of bread within them—but also unpacks how the state endures through forms, sensations, and practices amid the seemingly unglamorous and unspectacular day-to-day.
