Recenzii

“Its main goal is to address some crucial issues of food and water security and the influence of global food systems on the livelihoods of people from all over the world. … One of the major strengths of the book is its interdisciplinary character and practical approach that makes it useful for both scientists and policymakers. … I find the volume highly enlightening for building on previous research on food and water security … .” (Ada Górna, Hungarian Geographical Bulletin, Vol. 66 (1), 2017)
