Encyclopedia of food and culture

*Starred Review* The Journal of Social History recently published "Review Essay: Food and History" (fall 2002) by John C. Super. The author highlighted two significant resources in the study of food, The Cambridge World History of Food (2000) and The Oxford Companion to Food (1999). The Encyclopedia of Food and Culture should certainly be an addition to future essays. Edited by an anthropologist with assistance from a culinary historian, this new set complements the Oxford and Cambridge offerings.
