"Wonder Foods is insightful and learned, popping with moments of intrigue and teeming with interesting characters. Lisa Haushofer is a gifted writer with an eye toward the larger scope of the story of science, commerce, nutrition, and colonialism. This is a fascinating history."--Benjamin R. Cohen, author of Pure Adulteration: Cheating on Nature in the Age of Manufactured Food "Thoroughly researched and gorgeously written, Wonder Foods erases the distinction between food and medicine and charts the forms of destruction latent in the creation of engineered nutritional products. Exposed to Haushofer's clear eye and clever pen, health foods move from mundane household objects to chilling technologies of empire, extraction, and white supremacy."--Jeremy A. Greene, William H. Welch Professor of Medicine and the History of Medicine, The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine "This elegantly written, closely argued, and beautifully produced book critically analyzes fads surrounding wonder foods and other magic bullets at the colorful intersection of Western science and commerce in the domain of nutritional advice."--Krishnendu Ray, Professor of Nutrition and Food Studies, New York University
