520 Over the past two years, concerned Americans have finally
begun to ask who is to blame for the growing public health
crisis of obesity and diet-related illnesses? Is the junk
food industry at fault, or is it all just a matter of
personal and parental responsibility? How can we fight
back with workable solutions? In communities all over the
country, people are attempting to "take back" their food
supply from greedy corporations. Public health attorney
Simon describes food industry lobbying, front groups, and
other tactics that operate to undermine nutrition policy
in schools and elsewhere, and she explains how to
counterattack. Additionally, she tells how to see through
corporate promises; illustrates the importance of rhetoric
to control the debate; informs how to respond; celebrates
the unsung heroes in the fight; and provides resources on
how to get involved.--From publisher description.
