Looking at the philosophical issues raised by food this short and accessible book questions the place food should have in our individual lives. It shows how traditional philosophy and its classic texts can illuminate an everyday subject.

She is the co-author (with R.S.Downie) of Respect for Persons (1969) and Caring and Curing (1980), and (with R.S.Downie and Eileen M.Loudfoot) of Education and Personal Relationships (1974), and is the author of Happiness (1980).
