The Homeward Call
"This is theological biography at its best! With humor, wit, and a heavy dose of wisdom, Jeff shares his journey from the Mormon Church, which was filled with committed people, to the Christian faith, which he sadly discovered has comparatively few committed adherents. His story will have you giggling one minute, tearing up the next, and feeling convicted in all the right places. But most of all Jeff's story is certain to inspire you to embrace a more compassionate, committed, and fulfilling relationship with Christ!"

Food for Change
Concern about our food system is growing, from the costs of industrial farming to the dominant role of supermarkets and recurring scandals about the origins and content of what we eat. Food for Change documents the way alternative food movements respond to these concerns by trying to create more closed economic circuits within which people know where, how, and by whom their food is produced. Jeff Pratt, Peter Luetchford and other contributors explore the key political and economic questions of food through the everyday experience and vivid insights of farmers and consumers, using fieldwork from case studies in four European countries (France, Spain, Italy and England). Food for Change is an insightful consideration of connections between food and wider economic relations and draws on a rich vein of anthropological writing on the topic.
