"One of the very nicest things about life is the way
we must regularly
stop whatever it is we are doing and devote our
attention to eating."
-Luciano Pavarotti
But what do we eat? Where does it come from? How do we prepare it? FOOD FOR THOUGHT, the Social Sciences & Humanities Library's latest exhibit, offers some answers to these questions. The exhibit explores the intersections surrounding food and health, gardening, farming, politics, sustainability and more. Visit the exhibit to learn interesting food facts, explore kitchen curiosities, watch videos on related topics, and learn about the history and future of urban farms.
One goal of the Food for Thought display is to help make the UC San Diego Library community aware of the resources that are available on these topics. This guide highlights books, journals, and videos from our collections.
The exhibit is located in the Social Sciences & Humanities Library's Reference Area (enter the Geisel Library building, go all the way to your left). We hope the display catches your eye, whets your appetite, and sparks your imagination. Bon appétit!
