DESCRIPTION:Dr. Vandana Shiva, world-renowned Indian scientist, environmentalist, and 
 agricultural activist was designated by Time magazine a “Hero for the 
 Planet.” Winner of the alternative Nobel Peace Prize (the Right 
 Livelihood Award) and named by AsiaWeek as one of the top five most 
 important people in Asia, Dr. Shiva is the author of numerous books 
 including Biopiracy: The Plunder of Nature and Knowledge and Stolen 
 Harvest: The Hijacking of the Global Food Supply. In addition, she has 
 published over three hundred papers in leading journals, and is a founding 
 board member of the International Forum on Globalization and the founder of 
 Navdanya International, a science and policy research center based in 
 India. \n\nWhile daily news reports of increasing worldwide food riots 
 demonstrate the failure of the current global industrial food system, Dr. 
 Vandana Shiva will offer wise and innovative solutions for the grim global 
 realities of climate change and horrific food shortages.  \n\n"Shiva has 
 devoted her life to fighting for the rights of ordinary people in India. 
 Her fierce intellect and her disarmingly friendly, accessible manner have 
 made her a valuable advocate for people all over the developing world.”
