Download or read book Sowing the Seeds of Victory written by Rose Hayden-Smith and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-04-16 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sometimes, to move forward, we must look back. Gardening activity during American involvement in World War I (1917-1919) is vital to understanding current work in agriculture and food systems. The origins of the American Victory Gardens of World War II lie in the Liberty Garden program during World War I. This book examines the National War Garden Commission, the United States School Garden Army, and the Woman's Land Army (which some women used to press for suffrage). The urgency of wartime mobilization enabled proponents to promote food production as a vital national security issue. The connection between the nation's food readiness and national security resonated within the U.S., struggling to unite urban and rural interests, grappling with the challenges presented by millions of immigrants, and considering the country's global role. The same message--that food production is vital to national security--can resonate today. These World War I programs resulted in a national gardening ethos that transformed the American food system.

Even at home with the wife he loves, the memories of his travels return him to the beautiful women and strange foods he has known in exotic regions. When German troops surround Leningrad in the fall of 1941, he becomes a captive in the siege. As food supplies dwindle, residents eat the bark of trees, barter all they own for flour, and trade sex for food. In the darkest winter hours of the siege, the institute’s scientists make a pact to leave untouched the precious storehouse of seeds that they believe is the country’s future. But such a promise becomes difficult to keep when hunger is grows undeniable. Based on true events from World War II, Hunger is a private story about a man wrestling with his own morality.

Download or read book Resowing the Seeds of War written by Stephen J. Heidt and published by MSU Press. This book was released on 2021-03-01 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ending a war, as Fred Charles Iklé wrote, poses a much greater challenge than beginning one. In addition to issues related to battle tactics, prisoners of war, diplomatic relations, and cease-fire negotiations, ending war involves domestic political calculations. Balancing the tides of public opinion versus policy needs poses a deep and enduring problem for presidents. In a first-of-its-kind study, Resowing the Seeds of War explains how Presidents Truman, Eisenhower, Nixon, and Obama managed the political, policy, and bureaucratic challenges that arise at the end of war via a series of rhetorical choices that reframe, modify, or unravel depictions of national enemies, the cause of the conflict, and the stakes for the nation and world. This end-of-war rhetoric justifies ending hostilities, rationalizes postwar national policy, argues for the construction of postwar security arrangements, and often sustains public support for massive financial investment in reconstruction. By tracking presidential manipulations of savage imagery from World War II to the War on Terror, this book concludes that even as metaphoric reframing facilitates exit from conflict, it incurs unexpected consequences that make national involvement in the next conflict more likely.

Book excerpt: Seeds of Resistance is a wake-up call. With vivid and memorable stories, Mark Schapiro tells us how seeds are at the frontlines of our epic battle for healthy food.” —Alice Waters, founder of Chez Panisse and the Edible Schoolyard Sun. Soil. Water. Seed. These are the primordial ingredients for the most essential activity of all on earth: growing food. All of these elements are being changed dramatically under the pressures of corporate consolidation of the food chain, which has been accelerating just as climate change is profoundly altering the conditions for growing food. In the midst of this global crisis, the fate of our food has slipped into a handful of the world’s largest companies. Seeds of Resistance will bring home what this corporate stranglehold is doing to our daily diet, from the explosion of genetically modified foods to the rapid disappearance of plant varieties to the elimination of independent farmers who have long been the bedrock of our food supply. Seeds of Resistance will touch many nerves for readers, including concerns about climate change, chronic drought in essential farm states like California, the proliferation of GMOs, government interference (or purposeful ignorance), and the alarming domination of the seed market and our very life cycle by global giants like Monsanto. But not all is bleak when it comes to the future of our food supply. Seeds of Resistance will also present hopeful stories about farmers, consumer groups, and government agencies around the world that are resisting the tightening corporate squeeze on our food chain. “The latest science suggests that plants, including those of our major food crops, are engaged in a continuous interplay of responses with the environment in which they’re planted. That environment is changing; climatic disruptions are accelerating. The number of seed companies is declining, and the spectrum of seeds shrinking. The group of people involved in fighting for their seeds, and a more just and healthy food system, is expanding. Old assumptions of how we grow food are falling. New paradigms are emerging. It’s a time of profound vitality and volatility in the seed realm, with high stakes for all of us who care about our health, the planet’s health, and the food we eat. As powerful forces circle round the ground-zero ingredient of our food, one thing is becoming clear: a seed is never just a seed. Seeds are the canaries on our climate disrupted planet. They’re emitting strong signals. Let’s read them.”

Download or read book War of the Seeds written by Drew Worthen and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2021-11-19 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work analyzes a subject of some controversy in light of sound hermeneutics and exegesis while building upon biblical truths that support this undertaking. This is not a simple academic exercise but rather instills in believers a sense of encouragement whereby we can arrive at biblical truths based on accurately handling the Word of God while taking a pastoral approach in applying these truths. The subject at hand is the "sons of God" in Genesis 6 and the book of Job, together with NT revelation that reveals who these "sons of God" are in both Testaments. Determining who these sons of God are in Genesis 6 and Job is more than simply winning an argument. It is at the crux of the spiritual war that began in the garden and continues today but can be misunderstood and therefore undermined by improper biblical approaches. This manuscript helps to set the stage for a proper redemptive historical look into the people of God and catapults the believer into a future hope that God promised to the patriarchs through a coming Messiah whose lineage in Luke 3:23 states, "Jesus Himself was about thirty years of age, being, as was supposed, the son of Joseph," and ends back in the garden in verse 38, "the son of Enosh, the son of Seth, the son of Adam, the son of God." This is an instructive biblical account of the war that was precipitated between the two seeds that God set at odds with each other after Satan's temptation and Adam's rebellion. And as I move through the biblical particulars, the story finally ends as a "happily ever after" description of what God accomplishes through His victorious Son with His people ultimately ruling and reigning with Him on the new earth among the new heavens.

Download or read book The Two Seeds written by Fred A. Wilson and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2018-11-05 with total page 788 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Two Seeds is an exposition of Genesis 3. “And Hashem Elohim said to the Woman [Eve], ‘What is this you have done?’ And the Woman said, ‘The Serpent [the Nachash] beguiled [cheated, outwitted, and deceived] me, and I ate.’ And Hashem Elohim said to the Serpent, ‘Because you have done this, you are cursed above all [domestic] animals and above every [wild] living thing of the field; upon your belly you shall go, and you shall eat dust [and what it contains] all the days of your life. And I will put enmity between you and the Woman, and between your seed and her Seed; He will bruise and tread your head underfoot, and you will lie in wait and bruise His heel’” (Gen. 3:13ff). After the Fall of Man (Adam), the war in heaven led by the archangel Michael against the dragon, thence, the ancient serpent Satan, would continue on the earth. “And the huge Dragon was cast down and out—that ancient serpent, who is called the Devil and Satan, he who is the seducer [deceiver] of all Humanity the World over; he was forced out and down to the Earth, and his angels were flung out along with him” (Rev. 12:1ff, 19:1ff; Isa. 14:1ff; Ezek. 28:1ff; Luke 10:1ff; John 16:7ff; among others). The war between the two seeds would be a war of the spirit beings fought through human beings and other living things to the detriment of those who make the wrong choices during the battles to save the world of man! How did it begin, and how will it end? Prophet Daniel (12:8) wanted to know more and wrote, “And I heard, but I did not understand. Then I said: O my Lord, what shall be the issue and final end of these things?” This is the one question every believer is dying to know, literally.
