Atlas Of World Hunger

By Thomas J. Bassett
"“"The Atlas of World Hunger" paints a comprehensive picture of hunger in our time. Bassett and Winter-Nelson thoroughly examine the roots of hunger and poverty and incontrovertibly show their association. By devising a new scale to measure hunger vulnerability and by naming the multiple causes of hunger and poverty around the globe, from local to international levels, the "Atlas" provides an outline for solutions that will reduce the roster of hungry people from one billion today to zero as soon as possible.”—Paul Farmer, MD, PhD, cofounder of Partners In Health
