Hunger is a menace in different parts of the globe. It has more unnatural than natural causes. Though efforts hav been made to allievate its causes and consequences, more actions still needed to ensure its eventual eradication in the world. For Joseph Grassi, 'painful hunger is a daily occurence that must be countered by ongoing effective programs that enter into the lives of every Christian'. Such position not only recognizes the frequency and excruciating nature of hunger but also suggests that Christians and other religious groups have a very important role to play in order to eradicate hunger and its devastating effects. This book, using an interdisciplinary approach, explores the nuances of hunger, its causes, dimensions, approaches and connection to the Eucharist. It argues that hunger can be eradicated and that the Eucharist stands out as a veritable model.
