It nourishes us, yet it's also harming us. Diet-related illnesses have become the leading cause of preventable disease and death across the developed world, surpassing even smoking. At the same time, the way we produce and consume food is causing irreversible damage to the environment, accelerating climate change, and undermining the very foundations of global food security.

In Ravenous, Henry Dimbleby takes readers deep inside the modern food system, uncovering the powerful forces, economic, political, and biological, that shape what we eat and how it's made. He lays bare how this complex system is driving us toward a health and environmental crisis, and crucially, offers a clear vision of how we can change course before it’s too late.
