Our next book, Omnivore's Dilemma by Michael Pollan is now ready for pick up at the Main Library return desk. Last I checked only a few copies were left so don't miss out.
Critically acclaimed food scholar Michael Pollan explores the origins and implications of the American diet in his award winning Omnivore's Dilemma. Competing media messages about fad diets, the benefits of organic food, and the economic realities at the supermarket are elucidated by Pollan's thoughtful prose and meticulous research. Omnivore's Dilemma was the 2007 winner of the James Beard Award (probably the world's most prestigious food writing award) and named one of the New York Times Book Review's 10 Best Books of the Year.
We'll be meeting to discuss this book July 9th, at the Main Library in Conference Room 3 at noon.
