With the Green Revolution unmasked as chemical overkill, finding a way of
feeding the billions in 2020 is one of the biggest challenges we face. Richard
Manning has a go at unpicking the complexities of the job in his admirable
Food’s Frontier. Looking at eight collaborative projects that range from
high to low-tech and over several continents, he gives us the dirt on rice,
chickpeas and other big players of the veg world. Published by North Point
