Product Description

Product Description
This work challenges the abrupt transformation of food crops through genetic engineering. The authors show these methods to be far from fail-safe or risk free. They raise disturbing issues of failed government oversights and an industry underestimating or ignoring.

5.0 out of 5 stars Invaluable guide for anybody taking their health seriously, 23 Mar 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Against The Grain - The Genetic Transformation of Global Agriculture (Hardcover)

A very readable and excellently presented guide for those taking not only their own health but the health of their family very seriously. Undoubtedly a book which should be read by anybody wishing to be appraised of the facts ,rather than fiction, surrounding GM foods.
