Food Environment Education: Agricultural Education in Natural Resource Management, The Crawford Fund and the Institute for International Development, 280pp. (1996)
Foreword:
It was agriculture that enabled human beings to become producers rather than hunters and gatherers, and in doing so to settle into communities. From these earliest settlements have developed the elaborate and complex societies of today. During all these millennia, we have tended to take agriculture for granted. This is unfortunate, and unfair by all those - farm men and women in the fields, scientists in their laboratories, and policy makers in parliaments and elsewhere, for instance - who have contributed to the development of agriculture; an enterprise that is as significant as it is exciting. ... This is truly a book for our times by an author whose knowledge and interests are not bound by time. From yesterday’s experience he challenges us to create bright tomorrows. Dare we evade that challenge?
Ismail Serageldin, Chairman, The Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research, Vice President for Environmentally Sustainable Development,The World Bank
