* Only reader of its kind in this field, edited by the world's
leading expert on sustainable agriculture* Maps out the complex
subject area of sustainable agriculture; introduces and explains
key hard-to-find literature * Highly accessible--the essential
student reference textOur agricultural and food systems are not
meeting everyone's needs, and despite great progress in increasing
productivity over the past century, hundreds of millions of people
remain hungry and malnourished. This book describes a different
form of agriculture: one founded more on ecological principles and
which is also more harmonious with people, their societies, and
cultures. The latest in the Earthscan Reader Series, this volume
brings together the most influential scholarship in the field,
containing both theoretical developments and critical appraisals of
evidence addressing what is not sustainable about current or past
agricultural and food systems, as well as studies of transitions
towards agricultural and rural sustainability at farm, community,
regional, national, and international levels, and through food
supply chains. Related titles: Agri-Culture * The Living Land *
