Title: Short enough to not make you angry
Review: "How we eat" is a fairly uninteresting book that, happily, is breezily written, this making it fast to read and allowing the reader to find that there seems to be no point without undue waste of time and without becoming too angry at the lack of research or fact-checking (of minor points, such as the page 181 reference to Doc Marten boots).The book comprises armchair musings on various aspects of food, heavily flavored with facile Freudian analyses (suitably lacking in rigor, as befits psychoanalytic "theory"), with some Marxian analysis thrown, but not well mixed, in.Unfortunately, I really cannot think of any point in reading this book. I read it because I'd already bought it and carried it with me to bide the waiting time during a thorough medical exam. I wish I'd brought (and bought) something else.The best thing about this book is the cover: the illustration by John Martin is stunning, but you can see it on this page, can't you?
