 environmental activist, food sovereignty advocate, and alter-globalization 
 author. Currently based in Delhi, she has authored more than twenty books, 
 Including Who Really Feeds the World?, The Failures of Agribusiness and the 
 Promise of Agroecology and Making Peace with the Earth. She is one of the 
 leaders and board members of the International Forum on Globalization 
 (along with Jerry Mander, Edward Goldsmith, Ralph Nader, Jeremy Rifkin) and 
 a figure of the global solidarity movement known as the alter-globalization 
 movement. She has argued for the wisdom of many traditional practices, as 
 evidenced by her interview in the book Vedic Ecology.   She received the 
 Right Livelihood Award in 1993, an honor known as an "Alternative Nobel 
 Prize". \n\nVijaya Nagarajan is an Associate Professor in the Department of 
 Theology/Religious Studies and in the Program of Environmental Studies at 
 the University of San Francisco. \n\nEvery day millions of Tamil women in 
 southeast India wake up before dawn to create the kolam, a ritual design 
 made of rice flour, on the thresholds of homes. This thousand year-old 
 ritual welcomes and honors the goddesses Lakshmi and Bhudevi. Propelled by 
 a lifelong interest and deeply informed research, Nagarajan provides a 
 poetic and surprising entry into the layered complexities of Hindu culture. 
 Braiding Tamil women's voices and the author's own stories, Feeding a 
 Thousand Souls offers different knowledge traditions--beauty, history, 
 gender, literature, religion, anthropology, mathematics, and 
 ecology.\n\n$12 advance, $15 door.\n
