Food Wars examines how expanding global markets reshape what—and how—we eat. The book traces the political, economic and scientific forces that influence food production and distribution, and shows how those forces affect health, food security, environmental quality and social equity.

Rather than accepting a single solution, the author contrasts two emerging paradigms: one driven by life sciences and biotechnology, the other rooted in ecological principles. The narrative links market incentives, policy choices and technological priorities to real-world outcomes for farmers, consumers and communities.

• Comparative analysis of biotechnology-led and ecology-led food strategies
