In this title, two veteran "Wall Street Journal" reporters -
issue a powerful indictment of the economic, political, and social
dynamics that encourage hunger and famine to continue even though
we know how to grow enough food to feed the world''s population -
and point out a clear path to change. Although the science and
technology necessary to conquer famine has been available to us for
more than thirty years, 25,000 people a day - and six million
children a year - die of hunger, malnutrition and related diseases.
Thurow and Kilman, veteran reporters with "The Wall Street Journal"
and the premier writers on hunger and food aid in American
journalism today, their series of stories on the 2003 famines in
Ethiopia, Zimbabwe and Swaziland-titled "Anatomy of a Famine" - was
a finalist for the 2004 Pulitzer Prize in international reporting
perceive this fact as a matter of criminal negligence. In this
powerful narrative book, they journey around the world to expose
the economic, social, and political dynamics in both the developed
and developing worlds that encourage famine to continue including
the U.S. food aid system, U.S. European farm subsidy
programmes, the policies of the World Bank and the IMF, African
leaders, document how conquering chronic hunger is achieveable and
through what specific steps, and add fuel to the growing
groundswell of effort to make it happen. International in focus,
written with enormous urgency and passion, "Enough" is a necessary
sequel to "The End of Poverty", and will interest the readers who
made that book a bestseller, as well as those involved in the new
movement to end hunger.
