Autorenporträt
If you want to understand food - its production, processing, distribution, consumption and waste - then what you are interested in is energy. Vaclav Smil is the world-leading expert on this topic. He is Distinguished Professor Emeritus at the University of Manitoba and is the author of over forty books, including Numbers Don't Lie, Size and the New York Times bestselling How the World Really Works. He is published in more than 30 languages and no other living scientist has had more books (on a wide variety of topics) reviewed in leading scientific journal Nature. A Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada, in 2010 he was named by Foreign Policy as one of the Top 100 Global Thinkers.
