HarperCollins Publishers to publish Dr Sylvia Karpagam's new book about the politics of food

The Meat of the Matter by Dr Sylvia Karpagam NEW DELHI , Aug. 7, 2026 -- HarperCollins India is delighted to be publish Dr Sylvia Karpagam s well-researched and path-breaking book which dives deep into the discourse around our food choices and the politics of nutrition which affects our well-being as a community. Available now to preorder, the book will release on 18 th August 2026. Talking about the book, Dr Sylvia Karpagam says, This book offers the basics of nutrition to help plan a meal in a scientific way without all the confusing jargon. It also explains the politics, economics, caste and communalism behind current nutrition policies, programs and interventions which are adversely affecting the nutritional and health indicators of the country, particularly for the marginalised and vulnerable who face barriers to accessing their own traditional foods. This is evident in the poor quality of the mid-day meal scheme in government schools and pre-schools (anganwadis) as also the Public Distribution System [PDS]. The global push for plant based /vegan foods by multi-nationals is creating a caste and corporate nexus that we need to challenge. This book offers a means to do that.
