“What to eat?” This is a question we ask ourselves several times a day.

The answer seems simple enough, but there are endless factors that drives this decision: your values, budget, time, mood, and last but not least - taste.

To answer this question, Martin Cohen, PhD, taps into philosophy. Dr. Cohen is a British philosopher who blends “psychological and social studies with philosophical theory” and aims to explain complex problems in easy-to-understand ways.

His latest book is I Think Therefore I Eat: The World’s Greatest Minds Tackle the Food Question. Throughout this book, Dr. Cohen uses the wisdom of philosophers to answer the question: “What to eat?”
