“Genetically Engineered Food: Changing the Nature of Nature is the first book to take a comprehensive look at the many ramifications of this dangerous science.  Authors Martin Teitel and Kimberly Wilson explain what genetic engineering is and how it works, then explore the health risks involved with eating newly created lifeforms.  They address the ecological catastrophe that could result from these modified plants crossing with wild species and escaping human control altogether, as well as the economic devastation that may befall small farmers who find themselves at the mercy of megacorporation’s for their livelihood.  Taking the discussion, a step further, they consider the ethical and spiritual implications of this radical change in our relationship to the natural world.  And show what the future holds if we don’t act now to implement a moratorium on the production of genetically engineered food.”
