Book : The Economics of Food

During my trip back to Bangkok early 2011, I bought this fabulous book, The Economics of Food – How Feeding and Fueling The Planet Affects Food Prices, but could only complete it recently. The book is written by Patrick Westhoff, the co-director of the Food and Agricultural Policy Research Institute at the University of Missouri, and published in 2010. Although majority of the contexts are about what happened during 2005-2009, it’s still a must read in order to understand various factors behind the up and down of food prices.
