<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>A pocket compendium of food wisdom from the author of "The Omnivore's Dilemma" and "In Defense of Food." Pollan, the nation's most trusted resource for food-related issues, offers this indispensable guide for anyone concerned about health and food. (Consumer Health)<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>An enhanced edition of <i>Food Rules</i>--beautifully illustrated and packed with additional food wisdom</b> <p/>Michael Pollan's <i>Food Rules</i> prompted a national discussion helping to change the way Americans approach eating. This new edition illustrated by celebrated artist Maira Kalman--and expanded with a new introduction and nineteen additional food rules--marks an advance in the national dialogue that <i>Food Rules</i> inspired. Many of the new rules, suggested by readers, underscore the central teachings of the original <i>Food Rules</i>, which are that eating doesn't have to be so complicated and that food is as much about pleasure and community as it is about nutrition and health. A beautiful book to cherish and share, <i>Food Rules</i> guides us with humor, joy, and common sense toward a happier, healthier relationship to food.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>In the more than four decades that I have been reading and writing about the findings of nutritional science, I have come across nothing more intelligent, sensible and simple to follow than the 64 principles outlined in a slender, easy-to-digest new book called <i>Food Rules: An Eater's Manual</i>, by Michael Pollan. <b>--Jane Brody, <i>The New York Times</i> </b> <p/>The most sensible diet plan ever? We think it's the one that Michael Pollan outlined a few years ago: "Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants." So we're happy that in his little new book, <i>Food Rules</i>, Pollan offers more common-sense rules for eating: 64 of them, in fact, all thought-provoking and some laugh-out-loud funny. <b>--<i>The Houston Chronicle</i></b> <p/>It doesn't get much easier than this. Each page has a simple rule, sometimes with a short explanation, sometimes without, that promotes Pollan's back-to-the-basics-of-food (and-food-enjoyment) philosophy. <b>--<i>The Los Angeles Times</i></b> <p/>A useful and funny purse-sized manual that could easily replace all the diet books on your bookshelf. <b>--Tara Parker-Pope, <i>The New York Times</i></b><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>MICHAEL POLLAN is the author of five previous books, including <i>In Defense of Food, The Omnivore's Dilemma, </i>and <i>The Botany of Desire</i>, all <i>New York Times</i> bestsellers. A longtime contributor to the <i>New York Times</i>, he is also the Knight Professor of Journalism at Berkeley. In 2010 <i>Time</i> magazine named him on of the 100 most influential people in the world. <p/>MAIRA KALMAN is an illustrator, author, and designer.
