Through extensive research, travel, interviews, and hands-on preparation, Pollan investigates the dietary shifts in society from the earliest humans to the present domination of food production. With a focus on cooking-what gets cooked and how-Pollan is interested in the process of transformation that happens when meat, fruit, vegetables, and grains meet fire, water, air, and earth. Using the classical elements, Pollan investigates four types of food: barbecue for fire, braising for water, bread for air, and beer, kimchi, and sauerkraut for earth.
