Reviews

This book, comprised of contributions by leading scientists and professors, explores the state of current agriculture production and the potential ways that climate change will affect yield. The authors link climate change to socioeconomics by considering the effect of decreased crop production on hunger. They take a global perspective and this book will be a valuable opportunity to stimulate discussion between governments, stakeholders and scientists. -Ringgold, Inc. Book News, February 2015
