Editorial 2008/3: A worthwhile investment
According to Maslow's theory, published in 1943, obtaining adequate food is one of an individual's most important basic physiological needs, in third place after having air to breath and water to drink. Hunger can control a person's every thought, leading to frustration, apathy and weakness. Without food, people have no interest in needs higher up the pyramid, such as safety, social and esteem needs.
