How Food Works: The Facts Visually Explained (DK How Stuff Works) Hardcover – 23 May 2017

This purchase wasn't for any child - but for myself. It is aaaaaaaaaawesome! I have great difficulty keeping focused, this book is VERY good, brilliant quality (photos, binding). The hardback book in the hand, or resting on a pillow in my lap on the couch, or in bed - it's a great read. You don't feel trapped if you have to close the book (for things like sleep, cooking, getting other things done lol). But you can pick up this book and open to any section and *learn*. On another note: I think this would be a brilliant guide for younger readers too of course! It's VERY good - clean/clear writing, and as mentioned, wonderful photos to go with the learning journey (and you simply will NOT beat the price - this is something I feel very strongly should have been in *schools* as a textbook - their whole LINE should have been!) AWESOME! I am trying to figure out which one I want next lol!!! HIGHLY Recommend for all ages!!

Another triumph from DK publishing. Never disappointed with the quality of DK books. Well researched and informative with detailed illustrations.For anyone inquisitive about the science of food; this is a superb book.

The media could not be loaded. Lately I became very interested in health and nutrition and I was searching for some books.I am so glad that I came across this book too.Love that it is visually explained so that you can understand better what you are reading.Also images help a lot with memorising stuff easier so I find it very helpful to me.The facts from every subject are very interesting too.Excited to learn new things from it!

I found the whole book interesting. I am trying to improve my cooking skills so , I believe having more knowledge on how food works will be a big help towards this goal.

Just what I was looking for. Good sturdy book. Easy to read and lots of great information.

This book is excellent! I bought it for my 13 year old son to help him understand how important a healthy diet is (rather than me just nagging him) and I have to say we have both found it a very informative. Very up to date nutritional advice, clear and concise.

I love this book with all my heart! It is very fun to read and doesn't give information in a dull and heavy textual way. Lots of images and very clean upon arrival. This book was for a bit of additional fun whilst I was studying for a nutritional science course.

Really interesting book to read which has learned me alot I never even imagined.As someone interested in nutrition, weight loss and the gym it was great to read about the function of food and how we can get the most out of it to fuel our bodies.
