DESCRIPTION:Ten thousand years after humans figured out how to stop wandering and plant 
 crops, veteran investigative journalist Mark Schapiro plunges into the 
 struggle already underway for control of seeds, the ground-zero ingredient 
 for our food. Three quarters of the seed varieties on Earth in 1900 had 
 become extinct by 2015. In Seeds of Resistance, Schapiro takes us onto the 
 frontlines of a struggle over the seeds that remain, one that will 
 determine the long-term security of our food supply in the face of 
 unprecedented climate volatility. Published by Hot Books.\n\n“Seeds of 
 Resistance is a wake-up call. With vivid and memorable stories, Mark 
 Schapiro tells us how seeds are at the frontlines of our epic battle for 
 healthy food.” —Alice Waters, founder of Chez Panisse and the Edible 
 Schoolyard\n\n “At the bottom of it all lies the seed: Who controls it, 
 who ‘owns’ it, who plants and nourishes it. As Mark Schapiro so vividly 
 and compellingly writes: Save the seed, and you save the planet. Let others 
 control it, and they control everything. For real.” —Mark Bittman, New 
 York Times columnist and author of How to Cook Everything\n \nMark will be 
 introduced by David Talbot, who wrote the forward to Seeds of Resistance, 
 is the author of Season of the Witch, The Devil’s Chessboard and is 
 co-founder of Salon.com.\n
