In a Zoom call on the summer solstice of 2022 in India and the winter solstice in Australia, the founders of Spiniflex Press celebrated the publication of Vandana Shiva’s most recent book: Terra Viva.
Among her many prior books such as: Soil not Oil; Biopiracy: The Plunder of Nature & Knowledge; or Oneness Vs. The 1%, this is the first that might be called a memoir.
Her 50 years of activism and writing began with her volunteer work for the Chipko movement. Women in India embracing trees to save them from the running chainsaws of loggers, to taking on the World Bank, corporations such as Monsanto, and Bill Gates promotion of geoengineering and false climate solutions.

In the US the book Terra Viva by Vandana Shiva will be available from Chelsea Green in October of 2022
