Excerpt: Norman Ernest Borlaug (March 25, 1914 September 12, 2009) was an American agronomist, humanitarian, and Nobel laureate who has been called "the father of the Green Revolution". Borlaug was one of only six people to have won the Nobel Peace Prize, the Presidential Medal of Freedom and the Congressional Gold Medal. He was also a recipient of the Padma Vibhushan, India's second highest civilian honour. Borlaug received his Ph.D. in plant pathology and genetics from the University of Minnesota in 1942. He took up an agricultural research position in Mexico, where he developed semi-dwarf, high-yield, disease-resistant wheat varieties. During the mid-20th century, Borlaug led the introduction of these high-yielding varieties combined with modern agricultural production techniques to Mexico, Pakistan, and India. As a result, Mexico became a net exporter of wheat by 1963. Between 1965 and 1970, wheat yields nearly doubled in Pakistan and India, greatly improving the food security in those nations. These collective increases in yield have been labeled the Green Revolution, and Borlaug is often credited with saving over a billion people worldwide from starvation. He was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1970 in recognition of his contributions to world peace through increasing food supply. Later in his life, he helped apply these methods of increasing food production to Asia ...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=275564 ... Read more

März 1933 in Newark, New Jersey) ist ein US-amerikanischer Romancier und gilt als einer der wichtigsten Schriftsteller der Gegenwart. Er lebt auf einer Farm in Connecticut. Roth stammt aus einer jüdischen Familie. Seine Großeltern, die aus Osteuropa emigrierten, sprachen Jiddisch. Roth selbst besuchte die jüdische Weequahic High School und studierte 1950-51 an der Rutgers University. 1954 erwarb er an der Bucknell University in Lewisburg/Pennsylvania den Bachelor of Arts in Englisch, graduierte ein Jahr darauf in Chicago zum Master of Arts und erhielt die Lehrerlaubnis. 1955-56 diente er in der Armee, anschließend war er von 1956-58 Dozent für Englische Literatur an der University von Chicago. 1959/60 war er Guggenheim-Stipendiat, danach lehrte er bis 1962 an der University of Iowa Creative Writing. Als „Writer-in-residence" verbrachte er die Jahre 1962 bis 1980 erst in Princeton, dann an der University of Pennsylvania. Ab 1989 nahm Roth eine Dozententätigkeit für Creative Writing am Hunter College in New York wahr. Roths Ehe mit Margaret Martinson hielt von 1959-63; 1968 starb Martinson bei einem Autounfall.

Excerpt: Norman Ernest Borlaug (March 25, 1914 September 12, 2009) was an American agronomist, humanitarian, and Nobel laureate who has been called "the father of the Green Revolution". Borlaug was one of only six people to have won the Nobel Peace Prize, the Presidential Medal of Freedom and the Congressional Gold Medal. He was also a recipient of the Padma Vibhushan, India's second highest civilian honour. Borlaug received his Ph.D. in plant pathology and genetics from the University of Minnesota in 1942. He took up an agricultural research position in Mexico, where he developed semi-dwarf, high-yield, disease-resistant wheat varieties. During the mid-20th century, Borlaug led the introduction of these high-yielding varieties combined with modern agricultural production techniques to Mexico, Pakistan, and India.

From the supplier: Jimmy Carter was the only president to show an interest in sub-Saharan Africa. During his presidency, he condemned South African apartheid. As a former president, he established Global 2000 Inc. in 1985 with the goal of molding sub-Saharan Africa into a food producer and alleviate poverty and famine. He was able to recruit biologist Norman Borlaug, whose expertise is in the creation of food varieties which grow faster, as senior agricultural consultant.
