Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description: In light of the many famine and drought crises in the Horn of Africa and Southern Africa, there may never be a better time for a book like this. Could we have avoided the famines we see today? In all likelihood, "yes." This book demonstrates that famine is a process, not an event, yet the typical response to famine is relief after the fact, not preemptive intervention. Field's central message is that planners must integrate famine policy with development policy.
