'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
