Reviews"A small number of people in every generation are forerunners--in thought, action, spirit--who swerve past the barriers of greed and power to hold a torch high for the rest of us. Lappé is one of those." --Howard Zinn, author of A People's History of the United States "Since the publication of [ Diet for a Small Planet, ] a movement dedicated to the reform of the food system has taken root in America. Lappé's groundbreaking book connected the dots between something as ordinary and all-American as a hamburger and the environmental crisis, as well as world hunger." --Michael Pollan , The Nation
