Content:
Professor Jha and Professor Gaiha address important issues of food security in their wide-ranging selection of the most influential published contributions in this area of study. Their comprehensive, original research review discusses each article and places it within the context of twelve distinct themes, from which emerges a cogent view of the developing scholarly literature in this area and of the challenges that still remain. This Research Review analyses major landmark contributions in food security and will thus be of interest to all academics, policymakers, international organizations and students working in this area.
