Sinopse

Food Globalization explores the complex interplay of international trade, environmental changes, and technological advancements shaping our global food systems. It examines how these forces affect food security, environmental sustainability, and the choices available to consumers. One key insight is how climate change significantly impacts agricultural practices, threatening our ability to produce food sustainably. Another is the double-edged sword of technology in agriculture, which, while boosting production, also brings potential environmental risks.

 
The book progresses in three main sections; first, it lays a historical foundation, tracing how trade patterns and agricultural policies evolved. Then, it turns to the environmental consequences of industrialized food production, highlighting climate change, resource depletion, and biodiversity loss. Finally, the book analyzes the influence of technology on food systems.

 
By integrating environmental science, economics, and sociology, Food Globalization offers a multidisciplinary perspective, presenting a holistic view of the challenges and opportunities in our interconnected food systems.

    'Parenting is not just about bringing up children. It is about growing up and transforming ourselves to be better human beings. Every parent would do well to get themselves a copy.' 
    - India Today 
    'A simple belief - a happy mother is the best thing for children.' 
    - The Hindu 
    'Alive with anecdotes, distilled theory and authentic empathy - a gift of a book that nudges us gently through a reflective connect with ourselves and our children into the world of life-affirming parenting.' 
    - Gloria Burrett, Psychotherapist, New Delhi 
     
    'I accept and love you the way you are. You are unique, you are different, and you are you. I will not compare you with others, I will not constantly keep expecting and demanding what you might not be able to do or give.' 
    As parents, we foist our dreams and aspirations on our children, push them to be more than we could ever be. But do we have the courage and honesty to look within and ask what drives our parenting - our own needs or those of our children? More crucially, are we able to accept them and respect them for who they are?  
    Child & adolescent psychologist and family therapist Shelja Sen formulates five anchors of parenting to help you connect with the immense wisdom that is already present in you:  
    Connect (create the foundation of parenting);  
    Coach (build the necessary skills in children through an understanding of their unique wiring and temperament);  
    Care (nurture ourselves for a more wholesome life);  
    Community (build caring ecosystems for children to thrive in); and  
    Commit (sustain the courage and compassion).  
    Groundbreaking, essential reading.
