Summary:

A series for all those who want to know the good news about how we can reinvent the world to make it work better for all of us. This three-part series looks at some of the biggest challenges facing us today - work and time, food, and urban sustainability - and how innovative thinkers and doers from the famous to the obscure, from Berkeley to Sao Paolo, Brazil, are coming up with some of the ways of getting there from here.
Volume 2 [Food] raises the question -- "Is it fair to regard food as just another commodity like tires or gameboys?" -- and asks how we can design a system that ensures healthy, accessible, affordable food for everyone. Frances Moore Lappe, Joan Gussow, Brewster Kneen, Food Share Toronto, organic farmer Alyson Chisholm, and participants in an innovative food program in Brazil offer hopeful ideas on how to make food systems more equitable.
