{"product_id":"9780415156790","title":"Food, Health and Identity","description":"By addressing the issue of food and eating in Britain today, this book considers the way in which our food habits are changing, and shows how social and personal identities and perceptions of health and risk influence choices. It also looks at the increase of vegetarianism, and the relative ineffectiveness of official eating advice. The book should be useful to students of anthropology, cultural studies and health promotion as well as to those scientists and policymakers who  are concerned with food. The introduction seeks to indicate  how social scientists can help us understand why people eat  what they do. In the following chapters anthropologists and  sociologists discuss themes of change and continuities and identity in food and eating in Britain today.","brand":"Pat Caplan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45771566285118,"sku":"9780415156790","price":11136.5,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4357\/7662\/products\/9780415156790.jpg?v=1707251770","url":"https:\/\/exclusivebooks.co.za\/products\/9780415156790","provider":"Exclusive Books Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
