Oosterveer, Associate Professor of Environmental Policy, Department of Social Sciences, Wageningen University, Netherlands ""Weaving together complex debates on the food system, development, and global governance in an original and insightful way, Confronting the Blue Revolution is a carefully written, detailed, and articulate study.
