Since his New York Times op-ed column debuted in 2011, Mark Bittman has emerged as one of our most impassioned and opinionated observers of the food landscape. The Times' only dedicated opinion columnist covering the food beat, Bittman routinely makes listeners think twice about how the food we eat is produced, distributed, and cooked and shines a bright light on the profound impact that diet—both good and bad—can have on our health and that of the planet. In A Bone to Pick, Mark's most memorable and thought-provoking columns are compiled into a single volume for the first time.

America’s ever-expanding waistline—we see it, we hear about it, and we worry about it, but can anything be done about it? We know all the usual suspects: red meat, dairy, white flour, refined sugar, high-fructose corn syrup, a lack of exercise, too much television—the list goes on and on. It seems simple, right?

C'est ce lien, entre philosophie et pratique corporelle libératrice, qu'explore l'auteure. Dans cet ouvrage, à la fois court et sans détour, Elsa Ballanfat nous propose un chemin en quatre étapes : prendre conscience du mal que nous nous faisons, initier un changement, s'ouvrir à l'autre pour mieux le comprendre.
