A research biologist tells the clear-eyed story of modern plant
genetics, the human manipulation of biotechnology, and the reality
of genetically engineered plants worldwide. Genetically engineered
plant products line the shelves of our grocery stores, but we don't
know which ones they are because no label identifies them. Should
we be concerned? It is true that biotech companies are saying that
engineered corn and canola are safe, but are they telling the
truth? In High Tech Harvest, Paul Lurquin answers these questions
and more, believing that the public has a right to know and
understand how its food is manipulated at the most basic level,
that of the DNA itself. With the goal to inform, and a mission to
reinforce the importance of the scientific method, Paul Lurquin
writes a comprehensive and user-friendly description of the
scientific origins, the development, and the applications of
genetically modified plants throughout the world today. Lurquin
argues that only with an understanding of the basic science can
people make informed and reasonable decisions about genetically
modified foods.
