A propos de cet article

Version 1.3, June 2012. Pictorial wraps, light shelf, corner wear. Pages fine. Bind fine. 123 pages. Insured post. It is often claimed that the case against GMO food is based on fallacious emotion and to oppose food technology is unscientific. It is also claimed that GMO crops offer higher yields and better nutrition, they are safe for health and the environment, reduce chemical use, and are necessary for a growing population. This book, co-authored by two genetic engineers and a writer/researcher, exposes these claims as false, using scientific and other documented evidence. Antoniou, Robinson, and Fagan summarize the facts on safety and efficacy of genetically modified organisms in an accessible manner relevant to alll including scientists, policymakers and educators. The evidence presented points to many hazards, risks, and limitations of genetic engineering technology. These include the dangers found in animal feed and ecology, which in turn indicate risks to our health and the environment. This study's design enables chapter summaries presented here, while providing more detail and full references for those who require them. This thoughtfully condensed edition is shorter than the authors 300 plus page report which has been downloaded over half a million times. Traditional, ancient, and modern conventional farming continue to outstrip GM in developing crops that deliver high yields, better nutrition, less or no toxic chemicals, and tolerance to extreme weather and poor soils. In agreement with over four hundred international experts who co-authored a UN and World Bank-sponsored report on the future of farming, the authors conclude that modern agriculture, rather than Genetic Modification, is the best path in a truly healthy and sustainable world.
