WINNER OF THE ANDRÉ SIMON FOOD BOOK AWARD 2023SHORTLISTED FOR THE GUILD OF FOOD WRITERS AWARDS 2024THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER'Brilliant - a must read' Tim Spector'Ravenous is a truly important book ... we need a food revolution to ensure children don't go hungry, eat right, and reach their potential' Tom KerridgeThe food system is no longer simply a means of sustenance. It is one of the most successful, most innovative and most destructive industries on earth. It sustains us, but it is also killing us. Diet-related disease is now the biggest cause of preventable illness and death in the developed world - far worse than smoking. The environmental damage done by the food system is also changing climate patterns and degrading the earth, risking our food security.In Ravenous, Henry Dimbleby takes us behind the scenes to reveal the mechanisms that act together to shape the modern diet - and therefore the world. He explains not just why the food system is leading us into disaster, but what can be done about it.

For most of history, only the gods could bring back the dead. Yet today, resuscitation has brought millions of people back to life - some with vivid memories of what they saw on the other side. In Signs of Life, Jemima Lewis tells the extraordinary story of our attempts to undo death - from medieval miracle cults to bizarre Victorian experiments, the resuscitation of Abraham Lincoln and the girl whose death mask became the most kissed face of all time. Drawing together history, medicine, science and religion, Signs of Life is the definitive history of an awesome, unpredictable science that has transformed the way we think about God, death, consciousness and the soul.
