Summary, etc. The rich world has been watching television - watching African children starve to death in closeups of misery and despair.<br/>Famines and hunger have swept across Africa. Everyone knows that the famines were caused by drought but were they? This important new book argues that although the drought may have been an Act of God, the famines are the direct result of unsound economic, agricultural and environmental strategies. It shows how these policies have forced peasants to take more from their forests, soils and rivers than these natural resources can provide. It suggests some of the new strategies which are needed if Africa is to reduce and then eliminate its vulnerability to crisis.
