Résumé:
In this book, Nicholas P. Money tells the utterly fascinating story of mushrooms and the ways we have interacted with these fungi throughout history. Whether they have populated the landscapes of fairytales, lent splendid umami to our dishes, or steered us into deep hallucinations, mushrooms have affected humanity from the earliest beginnings of our species. As Money explains, mushrooms are not self-contained organisms like animals and plants. Rather, they are the fruiting bodies of large—sometimes extremely large—colonies of mycelial threads that spread underground and permeate rotting vegetation. Because these colonies decompose organic matter, they are of extraordinary ecological value and have a huge effect on the health of the environment. This book takes us on a tour of the cultural and scientific importance of mushrooms, from the enchanted forests of folklore to the role of these fungi in sustaining life on earth.

Résumé:
Salmon is usually thought of as pink. The colour is even called ‘salmon pink’. However, farmed salmon today would be grey. To make them the expected colour, synthetic pigments are added to their feed. Salmon are farmed in open nets, whose runoff has a severe impact on wild salmon populations, as well as on the seabed of the west coast of Scotland at large. Salmon is the(...)

Résumé:
Salmon is usually thought of as pink. The colour is even called ‘salmon pink’. However, farmed salmon today would be grey. To make them the expected colour, synthetic pigments are added to their feed. Salmon are farmed in open nets, whose runoff has a severe impact on wild salmon populations, as well as on the seabed of the west coast of Scotland at large. Salmon is the colour of a wild fish which is neither wild, nor fish, nor even salmon. The changing colours of species around the planet are warning signs of an environmental crisis. Many of these alterations result from humans and animals ingesting and absorbing synthetic substances. Changes in flesh, scales, feathers, skin, leaves or wings give us clues to environmental and metabolic transformations around us and inside us. Continuing our work on the Isle of Skye, this project questions what colours we expect in our ‘natural’ environment. It asks us to examine how our perception of colour is changing as much as we are changing the planet.

Or les champignons n’ont aucune éducation. Leurs formes affirment une méconnaissance totale de tout usage. Ils ne sont même pas monstrueux. Ambigus et radieux, ils tournent en dérision les plus élémentaires principes. S’ils se pourvoient de ce que l’on appelle un pied et un chapeau, chaque espèce, sur ce thème d’une pauvreté remarquable, s’ingénie à des variations dont la gratuité confine à l’insolence.

Mais entre la paysannerie «omnicole» que défend Dominic et le véganisme éthique promu par Jean-François, les points de vue semblent irréconciliables. Si le repas entre les deux comparses est impossible, le débat, lui, est bien substantiel.

Résumé:
Food expert and celebrated food historian Andrew F. Smith recounts the creation of contemporary American cuisine. The style of American cooking, along with the ingredients that compose it, has never been fixed. Smith's story opens with early America, an agriculturally independent nation where most citizens grew and consumed their own food. Over the next two hundred years, however, Americans would cultivate an entirely different approach to crops and consumption. Advances in food processing, transportation, regulation, nutrition, and science introduced highly complex and mechanized methods of production. Ultimately Smith claims how, by revisiting this history, we can reclaim the independent, locally sustainable roots of American food.
