Once embraced only by environmentalists and "health nuts," the organic agriculture movement is flourishing in the United States. With this popularity has come a heated national debate. Supporters of organic farming are concerned about the use of pesticides, chemical fertilizers, antibiotics, growth-hormones, and genetic modification in traditional agriculture. They favor natural farming practices, which they believe produce healthier food, as well as being safer for the environment and more humane to livestock. Defenders of conventional agriculturists question the health benefits and financial costs of organic foods. They also worry that organic agriculture cannot feed the world's growing population. To make sense of this debate, Organic Agriculture takes a hard look at statistics, legislation, and expert opinions from both sides of the issue. It asks tough questions such as: Does conventional agriculture endanger the environment and human health? What are the benefits and drawbacks of genetically modified crops and livestock? Are organic methods of raising livestock more humane? Is organic food safer and more nutritious than conventionally grown food? What are the pros and cons of labeling certified organic products? To answer these questions, this book examines the history of the organic movement. It provides a variety of studies, reporting, and opinions from scientists, farmers, activists, agribusiness leaders, journalists, consumer groups, and ordinary Americans. Supplemented with quotes, anecdotes, and discussions from the pages of USA TODAY, The Nation's No. 1 Newspaper, this book will broaden your understanding of all sides of the issue and help you form your own opinion, either for or against organic agriculture.

Adolf Hitler was a vegetarian and the Dachau concentration camp had an organic herb garden. Vegetarianism, organic farming, and other such practices have enticed a wide variety of Germans, from socialists, liberals, and radical anti-Semites in the nineteenth century to fascists, communists, and Greens in the twentieth century. Corinna Treitel offers a fascinating new account of how Germans became world leaders in developing more 'natural' ways to eat and farm. Used to conserve nutritional resources with extreme efficiency at times of hunger and to optimize the nation's health at times of nutritional abundance, natural foods and farming belong to the biopolitics of German modernity. Eating Nature in Modern Germany brings together histories of science, medicine, agriculture, the environment, and popular culture to offer the most thorough and historically comprehensive treatment yet of this remarkable story.

Thomas Van de Water is fotograaf, leraar fotografie, food-blogger en vooral een bon vivant, smulpaap, lekkerbek... Wat velen echter niet weten, is dat Thomas ook diabeet is. En wat velen ook niet weten: het een hoeft het ander niet uit te sluiten. Een tijdje geleden dacht hij: waarom mijn verschillende passies niet eens combineren met mijn diabetes? Op zijn veelgelezen en -geprezen blog filet-pur.be combineerde hij reeds langer food en fotografie. Tijd dus voor een nieuwe uitdaging: een kookboek voor diabeten en andere lekkerbekken. Diabeet is een boek met beproefde recepten die zich door de jaren heen gevormd hebben. Van klassiekers tot frisse, hedendaagse gerechten. Van een eenvoudige soep over een smakelijk belegde boterham tot een feestelijke maaltijd of een heerlijk dessert. Allemaal goed voor diabeten én niet-diabeten. Alle gecheckt en gedubbelcheckt door Marianne en Iris, twee diëtistes die ook de voedingswaarden hebben berekend. Gerechten met als rode draad: evenwicht. Een evenwicht tussen groenten, fruit, vis, vlees, koolhydraten... En bovenal een evenwicht tussen gezond eten en genieten.
