The book should be part of reference reading for most college graduates to create an awareness about the issues as they are impacted most by the food crisis.”

“I had the opportunity to actively participate in a one-day seminar of Prof. Marcos Fava Neves in Saint Louis, USA, where the contents of the book were presented and discussed. I am amazed about the knowledge the author has about the food industry.”

“Food used to be a day-to-day task to provide for it and it is very close to everybody's imagination. However, today's society is characterised by individuals who are regarded to be a food expert but it takes people like Dr Marcos Fava Neves who not only explains today's food supply and puts food into a global perspective but also challenges tomorrow's needs and requirements. All with an open mindset and in a stimulating and inviting style. I suggest you join and become a knowledgeable food entrepreneur as well.”
