Agri-food systems in the Global North are experiencing a wave of technological innovation in food production and ways of eating. This book is the first to analyse technological and socio-economic change in leading food sectors and it concludes that despite innovation, the food industry is adapting too slowly to the challenges of climate change.
The primary audience comprises Upper Division students, graduate students and fellow academics in this inter-disciplinary field. The book provides the most recent information on technological innovation, structural change and contemporary trends in modern food systems, which strongly recommend its adoption for course reading lists in food studies and library purchase.

David Goodman is Professor Emeritus in the Department of Environmental Studies, University of California, Santa Cruz. He is co-editor of the Food and Society book series.
