Anne Murcott
4.9/5 (17678 ratings)
Description:Abstract: Seventeen essays on the sociological significance of food and eating in Britain are presented. The focus is to examine the way the British relate culinary practices, menus and manners, and beliefs and concepts about food values to the social aspects of eating. Many of these practices, anthropologists note, are associated with the sociocultural patterns of specific groups. Four chapters examine food ideologies, 2 explore lines of thinking, and the remainder look at research related to food and eating. The 2 major recurring themes are that eating is a moral issue (nutritional values are equated to social values and health) and that food selection and preparation reflect social structure.
