Sinopsis

Famine Causes Today explores the persistent issue of modern famines despite advancements in agriculture. It argues that these crises are rarely solely due to food scarcity, but rather stem from a complex interplay of political instability, economic collapse, and extreme weather events. For instance, political violence disrupts food distribution, while economic downturns impoverish populations, hindering their access to available food. The book emphasizes the need to understand these root causes for effective policy interventions and aid strategies.

 
The book systematically examines the roles of political instability, economic vulnerability, and environmental change in contemporary food crises, using case studies from across the globe. It adopts a systems-thinking approach, highlighting the interconnectedness of these factors. Drawing on reports from organizations like the UN and FAO, it avoids simplistic explanations, instead providing a holistic analysis of complex events.

 
Beginning with a historical context, the book progressively dissects the various elements contributing to modern famines. This approach helps readers understand the evolving nature of food crises and the importance of addressing the underlying issues to achieve lasting food security. The content is presented accessibly, making it valuable for students, policymakers, and anyone interested in current events and economics.

Pound The Stone

Joshua Medcalf

“There’s a secret to mastery that you may have never heard, a single little thing that only the very best in the world know how to do. In fact, I believe it is the only thing anyone can do to gain true mastery at anything, and it’s an equal opportunity principle. It can be applied to fulfill your potential in business, in sports, in your relationships, as well as your overall life. Do you want to know what it is?” In the crowd, Jason leaned forward, laser focused. Kicked off his basketball team after a season-ending fight, his only chance to play ball again was to sell enough books door-to-door over the summer to get back on the team. He never needed wisdom like he needed it now. But little did he know that the answer he was seeking was about to change his life forever…Pound The Stone is the intense and inspiring story of a young man’s journey through the obstacles, defeats, and eventual victories that come while developing grit on the path to mastery. Told in the same engaging fable style as Chop Wood Carry Water, this is a deeper dive into the timeless principles that guide and inspire anyone who seeks greatness in life, and covers everything from true success, to the perfection trap, the value of failure, why courage is contagious, and why vulnerability can save your life. Pound The Stone will move you, inspire you, and hopefully encourage you to choose love and courage over fear and shame.
