Diet for a Small Planet (50th Anniversary Edition)

Upon its release in 1971, Diet for a Small Planet was truly groundbreaking. This extraordinary book taught America the social and personal significance of a new way of eating: environmental vegetarianism. World hunger was not a matter of lack of food, it argued, but of lack of justice in our food systems.

Half a century later, it is still a complete guide for eating well in the twenty-first century. Sharing her personal evolution and how this revolutionary vegetarian-focused book changed her own life, world-renowned food expert Frances Moore Lappé offers a fascinating philosophy on changing yourself—and the world—by changing the way you eat.

This edition features 85 modern meatless recipes, including more than a dozen new entries by celebrity chefs such as Mark Bittman, Padma Lakshmi, Alice Waters, José Andrés, Bryant Terry, Mollie Katzen, and Sean Sherman.
