Recenzii

"A labor of love and mature scholarschip, Around the Tuscan Table is an eloquent chronicle of major social transformations. By giving voice to ordinary people, Counihan offers a bittersweet tale of how Florentines experienced the modern dietary transition from poverty to abundance." -- Warren Belasco, editor of Food Nations
"Carole Counihan's remarkable portrait of an extended Florentine family reveals how food is inextricably embedded in all aspects of life. Part ethnography, part culinary biography, Around the Tuscan Table provides a realistic look at how Italians really eat, and how issues of globalization, women in the workforce, and changing social mores are altering Italian foodways." -- Amy Bentley, author of Eating For Victory
"Around the Tuscan Table will be of value to scholars who hear the "food voice" in their own studies of gender and social change." -- David E. Sutton, Southern Illinois University, Journal of Anthropological Research
