Summary

I wrote this book in the hope that it would help protect the planet for my son, his generation, and future generations. The preface describes my motivation for writing this book, some of the experiences that have shaped the book itself including my research in Ethiopia, my experiences as a new mother, a researcher, a teacher, and a practicing dietitian. The preface likens Earth to a very sick patient and how as clinicians we would do everything in power to save her, and that it is time to treat Earth in that same manner, and do everything we can to save her. It is a very emotional and powerful message to the reader.
