Michael Pollan's new book, In Defense of Food: An Eater’s Manifesto, will be published next month. Here's an excerpt from Pollan's recent NY Times article "Our Decrepit Food Factories":
"Confucius advised that if we hoped to repair what was wrong in the world, we had best start with the 'rectification of the names.' The corruption of society begins with the failure to call things by their proper names, he maintained, and its renovation begins with the reattachment of words to real things and precise concepts. So what about this much-abused pair of names, sustainable and unsustainable?"
