Until the early nineteenth century, political philosophy and economics were dining companions. But with the rise of corporate capitalism, modern economics lost sight of its primary task and turned away from the complexities of real people's sustenance in favor of the single-minded pursuit of money.In Meals Matter, Michael Symons returns economics to its roots in the distribution of food and the labor required. Both took up fundamental questions of how we should feed one another.
