About the Book
Eating the Present, Tasting the Future by Charmaine O’Brien takes readers on a fascinating journey through India's contemporary foodscape, exploring the rapid changes that are reshaping the nation's culinary traditions. India's food, with its diverse and rich array of tastes, styles, and histories, has long been a symbol of its cultural and regional diversity. However, in recent times, these age-old practices are being transformed by global forces, economic shifts, and technological advancements.
This insightful work ventures "off the plate" to investigate the many forces influencing how, what, and where Indians produce, trade, and consume their food. Through rich storytelling and research, O'Brien examines the evolving landscape of food in India, at a time when the relationship between food and society is becoming an increasingly global concern.
Timely and thought-provoking, Eating the Present, Tasting the Future provides unique perspectives on the intersections of culture, economics, and food production in one of the world’s most complex societies.
