| McKenna, M: Plucked! |
|
|
'Drug-resistant infections are among the greatest challenges of our time. Maryn McKenna makes this challenge personal and compelling, illustrating how antibiotic resistance has been developing, why we should care, and what we should all demand to address it'Jeremy Farrar, director of the Wellcome Trust Plucked! uses chicken as the lens for examining everything that has gone wrong in the modern agricultural system: overuse of antibiotics, threats to the environment, violations of animal welfare, destruction of farm economies and rural civic structure, disruption of international trade and delivery of over-processed, obesity-promoting, nutritionally hollow food. Drawing on years of research into the 'big chicken' industry, acclaimed science writer Maryn McKenna takes us from vast poultry farms to laboratories, kitchens and street-food markets around the world, revealing how economic, political and cultural forces converged to make our favourite meat a hidden danger. In this must-read journey through the poultry industry, McKenna introduces us to the people searching for solutions and seeking to return chicken to a sustainable place on our plate, and asks how, with reform, chicken can safely feed the world. Rich with characters who propelled the story of chicken's unintended consequences, Plucked! shows us how the antibiotic era created modern agriculture. It is an eye-opening exploration of how the world's most popular meat came to define so much more than just chicken nuggets.
