In twenty short books, Penguin brings you the classics of the environmental movement - now in one complete set Over the past 75 years, a new canon has emerged. As humans have driven the living planet to the brink of collapse, visionary thinkers around the world have raised their voices to defend it. Their words have endured, becoming the classics that define the environmental movement today. From art, literature, food and gardening, to technology, economics, politics and ethics, each of these short books deepens our sense of our place in nature; each is a seed from which a bold activism can grow. Together, they show the richness of environmental thought, and point the way to a fairer, saner, greener world.

Michael Pollan vil med denne boken holde en forsvarstale for maten. Han mener at det vi konsumerer i dag ikke er mat i egentlig forstand og at måten vi konsumerer det på egentlig ikke er å spise. Det vi spiser er ikke lenger et produkt av naturen, men av vitenskapen og industrien. Til matens forsvar er en hyllest til maten slik våre bestemødre lagde den. Han kommer også med tips til hvordan vi kan velge mat som gir økt helsegevinst. Stikkordene er moderate mengder og mye grønnsaker.

Det er ikke alltid enkelt å vite hvilke kostholdsråd vi kan stole på. Michael Pollan koker det hele ned til syv ord: Spis mat. Ikke for mye. Mest grønt. I denne boken gir han 64 korte råd om hvordan du kan spise sunt. Ifølge forfatteren selv bygger tipsene på en blanding av vitenskap, sunn fornuft og råd fra bestemødre over hele verden. De peker alle i samme retning, nemlig mot bedre helse og bedre utnyttelse av hele klodens ressurser. Boken har forord av Yngve Ekern.
