Description
Every day we wake up hungry and break our fast. In a fascinating survey of centures of thought on the power of hunger, the author discovers an ability to adapt to it that is nothing short of miraculous. From the fasting saints of the early Christian church to activists like Mahatma Gandhi, generations have used hunger to make spiritual and political statements. The devastating impact of famine and starvation on cultures around the world is also explored.
