Review
“Today McDonald’s, tomorrow the world.”—Times
“Naomi Klein’s No Logo, Eric Schlosser’s Fast Food Nation, The Silent Takeover by Noreena Hertz and now Bove’s book are the bibles of the anti-capitalist movement.”—Guardian
“Critics frequently accuse the opponents of economic globalization of not presenting any alternative ... The World is Not for Sale couldn’t prove them more wrong.”—Red Pepper
“In tune with the movement for which it will become a core text.”—Independent
“The peasant leader regarded as a hero in the battle to save France from fast food and free trade is bringing his revolt across the channel to protest against the ‘perversion’ of British agricultural policy.”—Sunday Times
“... a call to action, and a timely reminder of the principle: ‘Think globally, act locally.’”—Food Magazine
“A vivid testament to the extraordinary potential when local communities, heroic direct actionists and employees come together in creative alliances against corporate power.”—New Statesman
“... an engaging account of two twentieth-century heroes who, in their fight for sustainable agriculture, have embraced the larger vision for a more just, healthy, and harmonic global community.”—clamor magazine
