Fast Food Nation: What the All-American Meal Is Doing
to the World
Eric Schlosser
"The story of fast food is to
a large extent the story of post-war America. In a perverse
way, it is also the story of Britain since the deregulation
of our food and labour markets in the early 1980s. Schossler's
account takes in the whole of this prototypically global
industry, from its origins in the hysterical competition
of the southern Californian diners to the modern saturation
of urban and suburban locations, from the revolutions
in cattle raising and slaughtering, to the employment
practices of the industry leaders."
