Summary
This book traces efforts to balance the world's food supply with the growing population through summaries of the lives and work of some 40 famine fighters. Paarlberg covers inventors and scientists responsible for advances in science and agricultural technology, bureaucrats and philanthropists who managed food-distribution programs in times of potential famine, and individuals and governments which encouraged family planning as a means of eliminating hunger.
