More about the book
The book examines the pivotal role of antibiotics in transforming post-war agriculture, highlighting how their mass introduction after 1945 led to a dependency among food producers for maintaining and boosting production. It delves into the complexities of antibiotic use, regulation, and the emerging resistance over more than fifty years in both the US and British food systems, offering a critical perspective on the consequences of this reliance.
