Daniel F. Doeppers is a professor emeritus of geography and Southeast Asian studies at the University of Wisconsin–Madison.
Feeding Manila is a straightforward, if quite amazingly detailed
and statistics-rich, academic study of ‘provisionment.’ . . . The
book is well-illustrated with photographs, drawing and contemporary
advertisements."" - Asian Review of Books
""By traversing a hundred years of two colonial eras, Feeding
Manila successfully fills the crucial gap of the previous
researches and overcomes their deficiencies. . . . There is no
doubt that the fruit of this monumental work by Daniel F. Doeppers
will last long in the studies of Philippine history and society,
while keeping its stand as an important contribution for Southeast
Asian studies."" - Journal of Economic History
""Doeppers’s well-researched and well-written study sets a standard
for future studies of megacities. The book is in my opinion nothing
less than a masterpiece."" - International Journal of Asian Studies
