Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book, written by the author of 'Distribution of Products,' provides a comparative analysis of how science and significant social change influence food production and consumption. The author begins by examining major scientific discoveries and technological innovations from the mi…d-19th century onward, arguing that these advancements have had an even greater impact on human progress than earlier innovations like the steam engine. The author then turns to the profound social change brought about by the abolition of slavery in the United States, which he argues led to greater equality and economic opportunity. The combined effect of these scientific and social changes has been a dramatic increase in the abundance and accessibility of food, particularly for working-class people. The author concludes by providing a hopeful vision of the future, suggesting that science will continue to provide new solutions to the challenge of feeding a growing population. The book offers valuable insights into the complex relationship between science, society, and human well-being, making it a significant contribution to the field of economic history and food studies.
