Starting with his best-seller, The Botany of Desire: A Plant’s Eye View of the World, Michael Pollan has uncovered hidden aspects of the industrialized American diet. In his newest book, he encourages us to take control of our eating habits with a simple resolution, "Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants." Pollan shows us how more thoughtful food choices can improve our health and enrich our lives. A book signing follows.
