Reviews

`This is a thought-provoking book which makes uncomfortable reading for any Western citizen. It is scholarly with an abundance of references which demonstrate the author's depth of study.' - International Affairs `This challenging and critical book presents valid arguments that cannot be ignored by those concerned with the creation of a just and stable world order.' - The Book Exchange `A guided tour where the guide has studied the local history and speaks the language well.' - Food Policy `It is well documented and easy to read. It is a must for every policy maker, educator, bureaucrat, political functionary, junior or senior, who has anything to do, even if remotely, with issues of poverty, food, hunger.' - Indian Book Chronicle
