 ‘Hungry
Corporations tells us how the biotech industry and their
captive governments use Third World hunger as the justification
for force feeding the world with GMOs, while it is really their
own hunger for profits and power which is driving the commercialization
of GM crops and foods. Written by authors who have been in the
frontline of fighting the biotech giants, Hungry Corporations is a valuable resource for researchers, activists and ordinary
citizens determined to defend their freedom’ – Vandana
Shiva, author, Staying Alive
