Her prolific career – as a thinker, scientist, advisor and writer – has taken her around the globe, much of it to help answer the question of how to feed a growing population. In 'Our Food' she describes how her thinking has changed, combining nuanced reflections on many of today’s most pressing questions with colourful memories from a life dedicated to the fascinating world of food.
