In this book, Andrew McMillan and Ignacio Trueba provide a concise, but lucid and challenging explanation of what hunger and malnutrition are about, and how to eradicate them. They recommend a shift from supply-driven to demand-driven approaches to combating malnourishment. This book unmasks the global hunger problem; it calls for curing excess food consumption and a shift to truly sustainable food production systems. It sees the failure of most governments to run their countries in ways that let all their people to eat adequately as nothing short of famicide, that leads to the needless premature death of millions of fellow humans.And it argues that ending hunger should not e seen as welfare but as high-return investment in a more prosperous, fairer and safer world, less prone to crises.
