“A wonderful book that teaches us about history, globalization, geography, farming systems, labor, markets, politics and international trade. Sneyd provides a comprehensive overview of this remarkable commodity, while making a clear and persuasive argument about the need for alternative cotton production systems.”
William G. Moseley, Macalester College
“An important exposé of the cotton industry that opens our eyes to the way many businesses manipulate the media – and all of us. A telling example of why we all should look for and expose the story behind the story.”
John Perkins, Author of Confessions of an Economic Hit Man
