This compelling study of two centuries of British government food programs explores the political, economic and cultural factors behind them, challenging assumptions that they were progressive and based primarily on scientific advances in nutrition, and asks why the State chose to feed some of its subjects, but not others.

Acest studiu convingator asupra a doua secole de programe alimentare guvernamentale britanice exploreaza factorii politici, economici si culturali din spatele lor, provocand ipotezele conform carora au fost progresivi si se bazeaza in primul rand pe progresele stiintifice in nutritie si intreaba de ce statul a ales sa hraneasca unii dintre subiectii sai, dar nu si altele.
