The Economics of Biotechnology is a highly accessible book dealing
with some of the most crucial issues to arise in this area. Special
attention is paid to consumer, ethical and environmental concerns
as well as questions relating to trade policy, intellectual
property, who will receive the benefits, international development
and the role of international institutions such as the WTO. The
authors examine concerns arising from the application of
biotechnology in the agri-food industrial complex, and many of the
issues discussed also have implications for the medical and
pharmaceutical aspects of biotechnology. Fundamental questions
regarding the application of standard economic analysis to
biotechnology are resolved using traditional neo-classical analyses
as well as less mainstream methods. Through exploring a number of
approaches, original and unexpected conclusions are reached. This
coherent and relevant treatment of the myriad facets of
biotechnology will be welcomed by academics, scholars, and
economists with a specific interest in international economics or
technology, international policymakers, and economic commentators.
