Maintaining our manners we asked if Mr. Kushi could really help us to better health, greater knowledge, and spiritual unity through a daily bowl of brown rice. Our neighbor, who said his name was Whittaker, told us he'd thought he felt well before he went on the Diet, but that Mr. Kushi had taken one look at his face and told him how sick...
Like other Latin American intellectuals, Jaguaribe criticizes the United States for exploiting his country's resources and supporting military-elitist coalitions. He speaks with a peculiar mixture of hostility and admiration of "our North American neighbor." "People now ask," he says, "which will live longer: General Motors or Brazil?

The Mozambican libration forces do not control large areas of the countryside as the Angolan rebels did when revolution broke out in that Portuguese colony in 1961. But from bases across the Ruvuma River in Tanzania, Mozambique's northern neighbor, African "freedom fighters" have spread across the country, attacking isolated tea and sisal plantations, ambushing search parties sent into the tropical bush country to surprise them, and always slipping away under the cover of darkness to reappear as peasant farmers in some remote village...
