Book desription: Westview Press, 2004. Paperback. New Book. Paperback. This is a paperbound reprint of a 2002 book about which Book News wrote: Largely celebrating the use of biotechnology in agriculture, although at times critical of some of the most cynical machinations of the large biotech companies, Luquin (genetics, Washington State U.) presents a layman's introduction to the basic science and applications of the genetic modification of food crops. He begins with a basic explanation of DNA and genetics before exploring the science of biotechnology. In the final chapters he looks at the controversies and, mostly, dismisses the fears of biotechnology's critics. (©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR)
