Scientific feeding

Dora C. C. L. Roper

Casa editrice: Good Press

Sinossi

Dora C. C. L. Roper's Scientific Feeding is a practical yet intellectually ambitious contribution to the early twentieth-century literature of domestic science, nutrition, and public health. The book translates emerging nutritional knowledge into clear guidance on diet, meal planning, and the efficient preparation of food, reflecting an era when household management was increasingly framed as a scientific discipline. Its style is orderly, didactic, and evidence-minded, balancing technical explanation with everyday applicability. In literary context, it belongs to the tradition of home economics manuals that sought to modernize domestic life through rational method and physiological understanding. Roper writes from within a cultural moment deeply concerned with health, efficiency, and the reform of daily habits. Her work suggests a close engagement with the educational and social movements that promoted nutrition as central to family well-being and national vitality. Like many authors in domestic science, she appears motivated by the conviction that informed feeding could prevent illness, improve child development, and elevate household competence. This book is especially recommended to readers interested in the history of nutrition, women's educational writing, and the scientific reorganization of domestic life. It rewards both scholarly attention and general curiosity, offering insight into how modern ideas about food, health, and responsibility were shaped and disseminated.

Narrated by Tabitha Brown, with a special appearance by Queston Brown.
Sometimes people say to Tabitha Brown, “I’ve never eaten vegan before.” As Tab says, “Have you ever eaten an apple?”
After living with a terrible undiagnosed illness for more than a year and a half, Tab was willing to try anything to stop the pain. Inspired by the documentary What the Health, she tried a thirty-day vegan challenge—and never looked back. Wanting to inspire others to make changes that might improve their own lives, she started sharing her favorite plant-based recipes in her signature warm voice with thousands, and now millions, of online fans.
Tab’s recipes are flexible, creative, and filled with encouragement, so you trust yourself to cook food the way it makes you happy. If you’re already a “cooking from the spirit” sort of person, you’ll love how much freedom Tab gives to make these delicious vegan dishes your own. If you’re newer to cooking—or to vegan cooking—Tab will help you get comfortable in the kitchen and, most important, have fun doing it!
In this joyful book, Tab shares personal stories, inspirational “Tabisms,” and more than eighty easy, family-friendly recipes, including:
