of food as well. The chapter headings include "Famine" - anorexia, hunger strikers; "Plenty"
- from Lucullus to Mrs Beeton; "Punishment" - force-feeding; "Ostentation" -
politically extravagant meals; "Sex" - food before, during and after sex;
"Dislikes" - school food, foreign food; and "Passions" - wonderful food. This is a wide-ranging anthology which goes beyond the traditional limits
