Description

Harvest for Hope: A Guide to Mindful Eating
Author: Jane Goodall


In Harvest for Hope: a Guide to Mindful Eating, Dr. Goodall encourages us to consider the significance of our daily food choices. She and her coauthors, Gary McAvoy and Gail Hudson, demonstrate a variety of ethical issues related to the sustainability of natural resources, the well-being of animals and our own health.


Harvest for Hope: A Guide to Mindful Eating takes readers from the early history of agriculture, through the mismanagement of crop farming, to today's genetically modified foods and the horrors of factory farming. Dr. Goodall reveals how every individual can make a difference by eating vegetarian and favoring restaurants and markets which use locally-grown, organic produce and goods. Goodall, McAvoy and Hudson’s writing inspire the reader to demand a systemic change - from improved labeling of organic foods to better water conservation.
