Vandana Shiva, ed.

Who gets paid for the food we eat? Why does our food taste like this? Why do we live in a world where we produce food for 12 billion people when there are only 6.3 billion people living, and still, 800 million suffer from malnutrition and hunger, and 1.7 billion suffer from obesity? The one and only Vandana Shiva (Earth Democracy, Water Wars, Staying Alive) engages these crucial questions and more in her new anthology, laying out, in practical steps and far reaching concepts, a program to ensure food and agriculture become more socially and ecologically sustainable.
