So Shall We Reap: How everyone who is liable to be born in the next ten thousand years could eat very well indeed; and why, in practice, our immediate descendants are likely to be in serious trouble - Rilegato
Sinossi
Scientific progress should make it increasingly easy to feed the masses, and to feed them well. So why are so many people starving, or eating badly? In SO SHALL WE REAP Colin Tudge explores the way in which traditional agriculture has been transformed into a multinational business, where the only aim is the profit of the few. Our food may seem cheap - but as he shows, the cost of modern farming is horrific.
In this fascinating book filled with insight and learning, Colin Tudge presents a case for 'Enlightened agriculture' - working with rather than against nature. It is a case which 21st century farmers and politicians ignore at their peril.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. This volume provides an overview of modern farming, acknowledging the astonishing achievements of modern farming in providing for such a rapidly growing population, whilst exploring the growing disquiet surrounding it, with day to day dramas such as foot and mouth, BSE and raids on GMOs. It discusses the innate conflicts in farming; should the forces of capitalism and high technology be quelled to introduce less damaging alternatives? yet these alternatives - such as vegetarianism and organic farming - are said to be indulgent and an unrealistic option. Colin Tudge shows a way through the confusion to enlightened agriculture. He shows how we can manage to feed people for the indefinite future, but do so without destroying other species and traditional landscapes, without cruelty, without perpetuating injustice and without wrecking rural communities. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Codice articolo GOR002092902
