In Defense of Processed Food
Taking in turn a scientific, feminist, economic and public-health perspective, this book gleefully demolishes much of the received wisdom surrounding processed food. Anastacia Marx de Salcedo argues that most of these foods are fairly healthy, and their consumption is an undisputed boon to women's equality, since women still bear disproportionate responsibility for home and children. Alternate …

Replete with symbolism, Pratt's work elevates the traditional still life by transforming the everyday into the iconic. Art hist…
