Description

Tyler Cowen, widely acclaimed economist, wants the world to know that just about everything they've heard about how to get good food is wrong. Drawing on a provocative range of examples from around the world, Cowen reveals why airplane food is bad, but airport food is improving. Why restaurants full of happy, attractive people usually serve mediocre meals and why American food has improved exponentially as Americans have begun to drink more wine. At a time when obesity is on the rise, Cowen's expose will appeal to everyone who is concerned with global economics and good food.
