Book Description

John Madeley shows that the food imports of many developing countries are rising sharply while their food exports are not. He argues there is a contradiction between Western governments' rhetoric on reducing world poverty and their pursuit of more trade liberalization--against the wishes of most of the world. Food security affects us all. There is no more important issue.

4 out of 5 stars Good information, though sometimes repetative and unclear........2007-05-04

I really enjoyed this book, and it has dramatically affected the way I look at the world. That said, at times I wished it had been written better. Often I felt that it repeated itself or stated facts without explaining them or placing them in any sort of context. A good start.
