The book argues that the current model of technological progress is not sustainable and that we need to develop a new paradigm for understanding and utilizing technology in order to ensure the survival of our species. The book begins by examining the history of food and its role in human society, from the earliest hunter-gatherer societies to the present day. It then looks at the impact of industrialization and urbanization on food production and consumption, and how this has led to a decline in the quality and nutritional value of the food we eat. The author argues that this decline has had serious consequences for our health and the environment, and that we need to find a new way of producing and consuming food that is more sustainable and beneficial for both humans and the planet. The book then goes on to explore the potential of technology to improve food production and consumption, including the use of precision agriculture, vertical farming, and other innovations. However, the author also warns against relying solely on technology to solve our problems, and instead advocates for a holistic approach that takes into account the needs of both people and the planet.
