Book Description
“A meticulously researched tour de force” on politics, big agriculture, and the need to go beyond farmers’ markets to find fixes (Publishers Weekly). Wenonah Hauter owns an organic family farm that provides healthy vegetables to hundreds of families as part of the Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) movement. Yet, as a leading healthy-food advocate, Hauter believes that the local food movement is not enough to solve America’s food crisis and the public health debacle it has created. In Foodopoly, she takes aim at the real culprit: the control of food production by a handful of large corporations—backed by political clout—that prevents farmers from raising healthy crops and limits the choices people can make in the grocery store. Blending history, reporting, and a deep understanding of farming and food production, Foodopoly is a shocking, revealing account of the business behind the meat, vegetables, grains, and milk most Americans eat every day, including some of our favorite and most respected organic and health-conscious brands. Hauter also pulls the curtain back from the little-understood but vital realm of agricultural policy, showing how it has been hijacked by lobbyists, driving out independent farmers and food processors in favor of the likes of Cargill, Tyson, Kraft, and ConAgra. Foodopoly shows how the impacts ripple far and wide, from economic stagnation in rural communities to famines overseas, and argues that solving this crisis will require a complete structural shift—a change that is about politics, not just personal choice.

Book Description
Critical Thinking Enablers (CTE) is a "sweet sixteen" course package (see Table of Contents) with very much needed critical thinking skills. In a future that will require better skills at sorting out facts from fiction, this work is very relevant and needed. Simply put, and to borrow a little from writer Ernest Hemingway as explained, this syllabus is a vehicle for forming your own, "built-in, shock proof crap detector."Begins with a challenge test of critical thinking teasers (i.e., surprise pictures) that show how unseeing human eyes can be. Making statements of appreciation about others in your group, are encouraged throughout the sessions, by introducing "sentence starters." "I liked it when . . . ." "I admire you for . . . ." Occasionally, I have had students respond with sincere remarks that makes teaching CTEs, very worth while: ¿ "Wow! I realize now how this course is all about getting your head together!" (Unnamed student)¿ "Thank you Robert, for telling me you benefited when I gave examples of primary sources that made sense to you. You made it meaningful for everyone, too."Special Issue Number 1 77 pages, 69 illustrations, Bibliography + Dictionary of Terms. Index finder's aid may be retrieved on the website. Retail $20.
