The man who fed the world | Norman Borlaug and his battle to end world hunger
2006
Hesser, Leon F.
This is the story of the father of the 'Green Revolution,' the dramatic improvement in agricultural productivity that swept the globe in the 1960s, a poor Iowa farm boy who was trained in forestry and plant pathology and who came to be one of humanity's greatest benefactors. Dr. Norman Borlaug won the Nobel Peace Prize for averting hunger and famine, and saving hundreds of millions of lives from starvation -- more than any other person in history.
