"What Your Food Ate: How to Heal Our Land and Reclaim Our Health" by David R. Montgomery and Anne Biklé offers a thought-provoking examination of the intricate relationship between soil health, food quality, and human health. Delving into the science behind regenerative farming practices, Montgomery and Biklé shed light on the vital connections that sustain our ecosystems and nourish our bodies.
However, the book falls short in its discussion of the political and economic factors contributing to environmental degradation. While Montgomery and Biklé touch on the environmental impact of conventional agricultural practices, they do not delve deeply enough into the systemic issues driving these practices. A more comprehensive exploration of the politics and economics of food production could provide readers with a more nuanced understanding of the challenges facing our food system.
