#1 New York Times Bestseller USA Today Bestseller From strip clubs and truck stops to southern coast mansions and prep schools, one girl tries to stay true to herself. These Royals will ruin you... Ella Harper is a survivor--a pragmatic optimist. She's spent her whole life moving from town to town with her flighty mother, struggling to make ends meet and believing that someday she'll climb out of the gutter. After her mother's death, Ella is truly alone. Until Callum Royal appears, plucking Ella out of poverty and tossing her into his posh mansion among his five sons who all hate her. Each Royal boy is more magnetic than the last, but none as captivating as Reed Royal, the boy who is determined to send her back to the slums she came from. Reed doesn't want her. He says she doesn't belong with the Royals. He might be right. Wealth. Excess. Deception. It's like nothing Ella has ever experienced, and if she's going to survive her time in the Royal palace, she'll need to learn to issue her own Royal decrees. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
This book explores the evolving nature of food systems in Africa, which are at crisis point. The authors present case studies from across the continent to propose innovative and contextually relevant approaches to food systems resilience and food systems sustainable transformation. They investigate the contemporary challenges to food systems in Africa, including climate change, pandemics, energy challenges and war and conflict, inside and outside Africa. This book demonstrates how approaches to food can shift away from production, consumption and value chains toward safety, networks and complexity. This book brings new insight to the challenges in food systems from many disciplines, from agriculture, tourism, health, climate science, AI and digital science, political science and economics. Emmanuel Ndhlovu is a Research Fellow within the College of Business and Economics at the University of Johannesburg, South Africa. His research interests include development issues, political economy, land reform, agriculture and agribusiness, peasant livelihoods, informal sector livelihoods, migration and remittances, social protection, food security and poverty, and informal economy. . |
