Synopses

Food for Life

Drawing on over a decade of scientific research and personal insights, Spector presents a comprehensive approach to what we should know about food today. He explores subjects including environmental impact, food fraud, allergies and deceptive labelling, and looks at everyday foods with properties that scientists are only beginning to understand.

Identically Different

Spector discusses how recent genetic research and his own studies on epigenetics are reshaping ideas about genes, identity and evolution. He describes genes as changeable rather than fixed, and considers how these changes may be passed on to future generations.
