Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Food is more than just fuel; it also reveals a lot about a people's background, traditions, and character. People's eating habits, the foods they cook, and the ingredients they favor reveal a great deal about their heritage and character. Scholars, anthropologists, and sociologists have all paid a lot of attention to the topic of food and identity in recent years. This fascinating relationship explores the ways in which habits surrounding food both contribute to and are influenced by one's sense of self and community. Investigating this dynamic connection can help you learn more about other countries and their culinary traditions.
