If you eat, you should listen to this 53-minute podcast of a talk by Michael Pollan, author of The Omnivore’s Dilemma: A Natural History of Four Meals. Pollan covers the essentials of his important book. Informative and interesting.
Podcast link is to iTunes.
The audiobook – read by the author – is highly recommended.
His writing could use a little more editing – not as bad as Neal Stephenson or Charles Dickens, but tending in that direction – but in the case of The Omnivore’s Dilemma, he hit a good balance.
