Food in Chinese Culture: Anthropological and Historical Perspectives

China's natural resources and distinctive methods of producing, prepapring, and serving food have played an essential role throughout history in shaping Chinese culture. This wide-ranging anthropological study of hte Chinese food tradition presents a unique analysis of a culture through its eating habits. "This is so far, in English, no such comprehensive treatment of the subject of food in china. The rich information provided by the authors opens a new direction of research, analysis, and interpretation in both sinological studies and comparative studies on various cultures." -- Cho-yun Hsu
