A major figurehead of the alter-globalization movement as well as a major role player in global Ecofeminism, Dr. Vandana Shiva is recipient to several awards for her services in human rights, ecology and conservation. Receiving her Ph.D in physics at the University of Western Ontario in 1978, Dr. Vandana Shivas attentions were quickly drawn towards ecological concerns.
Vandana Shiva clearly points out the hazards to our continued existence here on earth, and how crucial it is now to protect our food sovereignty. This book should really be part of high school curriculum required reading, especially in the biology, health and food sectors.
