The Monkey Wrench Gang (Penguin Modern Classics)

102 reviews
Edward Abbey

Penguin Classics, 2004

Where the hell do all these people come from?
I hadn't read Monkey Wrench Gang for 15+ years, and I don't know why, but back then I kind of blew it off. Re-reading it really surprised me. It may even be more timely now than then. Peabody Coal's descendants continue to rape the West(and anywhere else they can get their hands on), land is gobbled up for yuppie hives, planned communities, and SCD's(suburban cluster developments). While I don't ...

The Pleasures of Slow Food: Celebrating Authentic Traditions, Flavors, and Recipes

5 reviews
Corby Kummer

Chronicle Books, 2002

Well-written (and beautiful) book on important movement
I think that "The Pleasures of Slow Food" is a remarkable book with something for everyone. You can enjoy the engaging stories of farmers, food artisans and cultural preservationists from around the world, written in Kummer's delightful manner. Alternatively you can relish in the sheer beauty of the photography. It's even a cookbook if you want to try the recipes of world reknown chefs. But ...

Eric Schlosser, 2003

Un libro que abrira tus ojos...!
En este libro el periodista Eric Schlosser investiga la fundacion, relaciones y tacticas de las grandes multinacionales de comida rapida. En ocasiones pensamos que las acciones de las companias solamente tienen su base en la venta, pero mas alla de las ventas es la manera en la que se crea una cultura de consumerismo, la cual esta basada en investigaciones y todo un andamiaje que incluye hasta ...

Fast Food Nation tie-in: The Dark Side of the All-American Meal (P.S.)

ways of eating
I know kids that buy Taco Bell for lunch religiously at school, or domino's pizza; I was never fortunate enough to spend a $4 on lunch everday and came with packed carrots and a turkey sandwich. After reading Fast Food Nation I am so thankful that I am even limited to eating fast food on a rare weekend.I agree that it is very convenient for fast paced lives but Schlosser has released what people ...

E-Penguin, 2002

Unexpected, but enjoyable.
I will warn all of you future readers: this is a great book and is rather historical in content. Contrary to my common thought that this whole book was bashing the fast food industry, it really did neither. Instead he really shows how fast food originated, how it affects industry (especially industrial agriculture), and why we love it so much. Fast food infiltrates everyday life for much of the ...

Chew On This: Everything You Don't Want to Know About Fast Food

Eric Schlosser, Charles Wilson

Topeka Bindery, 2007

Great for middle grades
I purchased a set of five of these books for my seventh grade class to read in book groups. This has been one of the biggest hits of the class! EVERYONE wants to read it. (In junior high, this is rare.) Every day, a student approaches me to enthusiastically share a fact from the book. Science teachers have been asking me about it because the kids are telling them about it. I have only read parts ...

The Jungle (Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition)

7 reviews
Upton Sinclair

Penguin Classics, 2006

Two great authors for the price of one!
The Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition of 'The Jungle' is worth buying for Eric Schlosser's foreword alone, let alone Upton Sinclair's gripping expose. As author of Fast Food Nation (which is a bit of 'The Jungle' of our time), Schlosser wastes no time in underlining how frighteningly similar Sinclair's meat-packing industry is today's fast-food empires. Despite being eradicated through ...

Penguin Books Ltd, 2002

Wake Up, America
This book essentially tells several facets to the fast food industry. It goes into detail discussing how some companies in this industry were launched into the monetary success they enjoy today. It discusses what's in the food they sell you, with on site evaluations and observations by the author at many different butcheries and plantations. This is a good book for getting a fairly complete ...

Penguin Books Ltd, 2004

This book changed my life.
I read this book as I am interested in the topic of how the war on drugs has hurt our country more than helped it, and was looking for more information. However, it was the section on immigration that changed my life. Until I read this book I used to be pretty liberal Florida Democrat and a bit of an environmentalist. The only two people I have voted for president that won were jimmy Carter and ...

Fast Food Gesellschaft. Die dunkle Seite von McFood und Co.

1 review
Eric Schlosser

Riemann Verlag, 2002

Very detailed history and facts about the fastfood industry
Fastfood Economy is a detailed research into the fastfood industry in the USA. It is marketed as an expose detailing how fastfood makes you fat and ruins the world. Happily it isn't that. Instead it is a thorough fact based description of all aspects of the fastfood industry. Schlosser obsessively details: The history of fastfood in general, dwelling on histories of the USA wide chains, ...
