With a firm but gentle touch, Dr. Goodall paints a global landscape in which corporations own the rainwater, patent the earth's seeds, and produce mysterious "Frankenfoods." Offering her hopeful, stirring vision, she introduces us to inspiring everyday heroes like a third-generation farmer who battled Monsanto and won; French activists who protest against genetically modified crops; and John Mackey, the founder of whole foods, who has vowed to sell only ethically raised animal products. Most valuable of all, Goodall offers simple strategies yo foster a sustainable society. By eating organic, shopping at farmer's markets, and taking other mindful measures, we can all do our part to reclain our food, our health, and our planet. And we must start now.
