Food First was founded in 1975 by Frances Moore Lapp<'e> to explore the causes of hunger in a world of plenty. The present volume reflects this concern in its essay on what Altieri (U. of California, Berkeley) sees as the serious questions to be addressed in the drive toward genetically engineered crops. The preface mentions a workshop organized by the author that was held on the campus of the U. of California at Berkeley in March 2000; this volume is not a proceedings, however, but a short essay containing the author's critique of the creation of genetically modified food and the plans to propagate it world wide.
