Stolen Harvest | Praise
"Stolen Harvest is recommended
reading for all who are interested in genetic engineering and commercial agriculture
and the role they should have in feeding the world. Shiva's claims are well-documented
and call for careful consideration by all."
—Sustainable Communities Review
"An important contribution to ongoing debates about...timely and contentious
issues. The book will be of interest to a diverse audience, including those
concerned with development and food security issues, the trade-environment conflict,
and North-South relations in a globalizing era."
—Progress in Development Studies
"More than a searing indictment of the growing corporatizing of agriculture,
Shiva's book is a call to arms. She encourages readers to join the growing food
fight and...profiles a number of citizen groups who are doing just that, successfully."
—LA Times Syndicate
"An impassioned, reality-based testament (humble and at times homespun)
to what happens when ignorance is ignored and knowledge joined with its often
elusive twin, action.… Shiva is an eloquent speaker and a confident, economical
writer.… What she documents here through a series of short case studies is fascinating,
chilling, and at times, jaw-droppingly horrible."
—Satya
"Stolen Harvest is a passionate, articulate, highly recommended
wake up call to the public...."
—Wisconsin Bookwatch
