World Hunger and Poverty

For those with an interest in hunger, poverty, and the social science thereof, I’ve compiled a list of books and reading materials. You can easily buy any of these books from Amazon instantly, so I recommend you get one, two, or a few. Here’s the list:

• The World’s Banker by Sebastian Mallaby
• World Hunger: 12 Myths
• World Development Report 2006
• Famine in Africa: Causes, Responses, and Prevention
• The Globalization of Poverty & the NWO
• Aiding Violence: The Development Enterprise in Rwanda
• The Careless Society: Community and Its Counterfeits
• The Politics of Food

And, that’s it for now, but I’ll post more as I read them or they are recommended to me. If you want to add any other books to the list please do by using the comment function. (Hit comment below the post.)

Remember, collective ignorance and neglect allows hunger, poverty, and social injustice. The spread of knowledge and rational discussion are the most quintessential part of the solution, and books epitomize the spread of knowledge.
