2021rif. bsdt 0000302 89jhg op 200Probable First Printing First Edition; Does not comply with McBride7 but has "1st printing" on copywrite page. From chef and food activist Alice Waters an impassioned plea for a radical reconsideration of the way each and every one of us cooks and eats In We Are What We Eat Alice Waters urges us to take up the mantle of slow food culture the philosophy at the core of her life's work. When Waters first opened Chez Panisse in 1971 she did so with the intention of feeding people good food during a time of political turmoil. Customers responded to the locally sourced organic ingredients to the dishes made by hand and to the welcoming hospitality that infused the small space—human qualities that were disappearing from a country increasingly seduced by takeout frozen dinners and prepackaged ingredients. Waters came to see that the phenomenon of fast food culture which prioritized cheapness availability and speed was not only ruining our health but also dehumanizing the ways we live and relate to one another. Over years of working with regional farmers Waters and her partners learned how geography and seasonal fluctuations affect the ingredients on the menu as well as about the dangers of pesticides the plight of fieldworkers and the social economic and environmental threats posed by industrial farming and food distribution. So many of the serious problems we face in the world today—from illness to social unrest to economic disparity and environmental degradation—are all at their core connected to food. Fortunately there is an antidote. Waters argues that by eating in a "slow food way" each of us—like the community around her restaurant—can be empowered to prioritize and nurture a different kind of culture one that champions values such as biodiversity seasonality stewardship and pleasure in work. This is a declaration of action against fast food values and a working theory about what we can do to change the course. As Waters makes clear every decision we make about what we put in our mouths affects not only our bodies but also the world at large—our families our communities and our environment. We have the power to choose what we eat and we have the potential for individual and global transformation—simply by shifting our relationship to food. All it takes is a taste.

2016rif. 132196Ann Arbor MI: Legacy Press 2016. cloth dust jacket. large 8vo. cloth dust jacket. 496 pages. In Waters Rising: Letters from Florence renowned calligrapher Sheila Waters recounts the story of the role that her husband Peter Waters 1930-2003 played as the person in charge of organizing the monumental efforts to save severely damaged books in the Biblioteca Nazionale Centrale di Firenze National Library Florence after the devastating flood in 1966 fifty years ago. To give the most complete picture of the events that occurred initially in the recovery mission Sheila presents nearly 50 of Peter's letters written between the end of November 1966 and April 1967 in which he describes day-to-day happenings and her letters back which kept him informed about things at home and boosted his confidence when problems seemed to be overwhelming. In addition to these letters and Sheila's narrative diary and timeline of events Randy Silverman Head of Preservation University of Utah has written a thought-provoking introduction that puts those conservation efforts into the context of today's practices. Also Valerii P. Leonov has written an appreciation of Peter's assistance in the aftermath of a fire in 1988 that ravaged the Library of the Russian Academy of Sciences. The accompanying DVD features a digital remastering of Roger Hills film Restoration of Books Florence 1968. Waters Rising is dedicated to the people whose names appear herein and to those unnamed Mud Angels who salvaged the books that the flood waters left behind. In 2016 conservators around the world focused on those events that occurred 50 years ago because in many ways the work that Waters and his colleagues initiated then gave birth to modern book conservation.
