Cook, Christopher D. Diet for a Dead Planet: How the Food Industry Is Killing Us. New York: New, 2004. Print.
In this book, Cook argues that food safety is in the hands of the food industry and they are concerned with earning more. Agriculture, for instance, is becoming a business with large corporations in control are invested in productivity and profits. These businesses are ultimately killing us; 5,000 people died from food poisonings last year. This book will be a great addition to my research since it adds more scientific proof that the food industry has been harming us in order to earn more money.
Pawlick, Thomas. The End of Food. Fort Lee, NJ: Barricade, 2006. Print.
In this book, Pawlick argues that the food industry is sucking the nutrients out of our food. Replacing the nutrients are harmful ingredients that can in fact be toxic to our body. The current method of food production is geared towards profit. Food safety is not a top priority for the food industry. This popular book will be helpful in my research to prove that the food industry plays a major role in the contamination of food because of greed.
