Reception
Historian Chandak Sengoopta commented that "The Bloodless Revolution is a wonderful book, crammed with original research and written with verve, wit and passion. The most enthralling work of cultural history I have read in years, it brings out the political, ethical and environmental implications of our dietary choices without any preachiness."[3] Philosopher A. C. Grayling praised the historical research of the book.[5]
The book was positively reviewed by Publishers Weekly who suggested that "Stuart offers a masterful social and cultural history of a movement that changed the ways people think about the food they eat."[6] A review by Kirkus Reviews described it as "Culinary and cultural history intertwined: readable, and endlessly interesting."[7]
