JENSEN, LLOYD B[RYAN] Man's foods: nutrition and environments in food gathering times and food producing times.
Champaign, IL, Garrard Press 1953 First Edition Hard Cover Very Good in Good dust jacket
X,278 pages, cloth, dj, very good. From the dust jacket: "This is the story, in a fascinating array of fact and scientific conjecture, of Man's unceasing quest for food; of how Man evolved from a food-gatherer to a food-producer; how he chose, rejected, shaped Nature to his will, always attempting to provide himself with enough of the right kinds of food. And how, in this long evolution, Man changed, too - because of, and in spite of, the foods he ate. This then, is a history of the development of the young science we call nutrition, stressing the basic significance of food supply in Man's physical and social growth. But the book's appeal is to a far wider audience than technical writings on nutrition and food technology, for the author has placed new emphasis on many current findings and long-established facts in the fields of medicine, chemistry, microbiology, and agriculture." Jensen's other works include: Meat and meat foods - processing and preservation from meat plant to consumer; Microbiology of meat; and Poisoning misadventures - Narrative excerpts on food-borne diseases and poisoning for the physician, microbiologist, attorney, and nutritionist.
