Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Systematically analyzes the experiences of institutions on how to communicate genetic engineering (GE) in the agro-food sector (AFS) to the public & make the results available to all interested parties. Case studies in the U.K., the Netherlands, Denmark & Germany were carried out. The results are used to draw up recommendations for successful strategies & their prerequisites, for effective instruments & measures, & to point out problems & pitfalls. Although the project was finished in 1996, the results & conclusions are still valid today, since the use of GE in the AFS still meets considerable resistance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bringing together the perspectives of both researchers and practitioners on public opinion processes, these case studies look at public opinion data, communication theory and international examples to see how public opinion is formed. Empirical tests of theories of opinion formation are studied as well as practical experiences used to provide critical insights on communication strategies.

Download or read book Genes on the Menu written by Paul Pechan and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2005-01-17 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Only little more than a decade ago the term "genetic engineering" was hardly known outside research laboratories. Today it regularly makes headlines in the news. Supporters and opponents as well tell us that it could change our lives more than any other technological advance. This book delivers the state-of-the-art facts in order to empower the public to make knowledge-based decisions about plant biotechnology and GM crops and GM food, in particular. It discusses the hot topics of the present debate in a neutral manner and will function as a personal reference book for the interested public, for decision maker, and managers of consumer organisations.
Book Synopsis Genetic Modification in the Food Industry by : Susan Harlander
Download or read book Genetic Modification in the Food Industry written by Susan Harlander and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the true economic impact of genetic modifications is yet to be realized, the potential of this new technology to benefit the food processing industry and to improve food quality is enormous. Specific genetically modified whole foods and food ingredients that have recently become available or are about to become available are described and discussed in relation to their technical performance and consumer acceptance. The regulatory, ethical and communication issues in food biotechnology are also reviewed. As the products of gene technology come on stream, decisions need to be made as to whether or not to use them. Yet, many food industry professionals have little or no background in biotechnology and have a limited concept of possible applications in foods. Therefore, this book aims to foster a greater understanding of the benefits and potential pitfalls of this new technology.
Book Synopsis Genetic Engineering of Plants by : National Research Council
Download or read book Genetic Engineering of Plants written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1984-02-01 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The book...is, in fact, a short text on the many practical problems...associated with translating the explosion in basic biotechnological research into the next Green Revolution," explains Economic Botany. The book is "a concise and accurate narrative, that also manages to be interesting and personal...a splendid little book." Biotechnology states, "Because of the clarity with which it is written, this thin volume makes a major contribution to improving public understanding of genetic engineering's potential for enlarging the world's food supply...and can be profitably read by practically anyone interested in application of molecular biology to improvement of productivity in agriculture."
Book Synopsis Dinner at the New Gene Café by : Bill Lambrecht
Download or read book Dinner at the New Gene Café written by Bill Lambrecht and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2007-04-01 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biotech companies are racing to alter the genetic building blocks of the world's food. In the United States, the primary venue for this quiet revolution, the acreage of genetically modified crops has soared from zero to 70 million acres since 1996. More than half of America's processed grocery products-from cornflakes to granola bars to diet drinks-contain gene-altered ingredients. But the U.S., unlike Europe and other democratic nations, does not require labeling of modified food. Dinner at the New Gene Café expertly lays out the battle lines of the impending collision between a powerful but unproved technology and a gathering resistance from people worried about the safety of genetic change.
Book Synopsis Public Health and Agricultural Biotechnology by : Mitchell Berger
Download or read book Public Health and Agricultural Biotechnology written by Mitchell Berger and published by Universal-Publishers. This book was released on 2000-09 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Genetically modified foods present numerous ethical, environmental, health and legal challenges. This report synthesizes information from many websites, scientific journals, newspapers and books that discuss the controversy surrounding genetically modified foods. The author has attempted to show that although the future applications of agrobiotechnology appear promising, the ways in which it is currently being used and regulated should be evaluated with a healthy degree of skepticism.
Download or read book Against the Grain written by Marc Lappe and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-04-08 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world's food production is undergoing a rapid and revolutionary transformation, but little is known about it and less is being done to question the wisdom of it. Within a very few years, much of what we eat will have been genetically engineered, without proper consideration of the issues of public health, consumer choice and ecological stability. Against the Grain argues that the consequences of this huge experiment could be catastrophic, and at the very least have been underestimated or ignored by the industries exploiting the new technologies. The authors have unearthed government and industry documents which show these new methods to be far from fail-safe or risk free. Comprehensively supported with facts and references, the book provides a full account of the science and technologies involved in producing 'transgenic plants'. It also explains the scale and speed of what is going on, and argues for full public accountability and control of new developments - before it is too late.
Book Synopsis Genetic Engineering in Agriculture by : Miguel A. Altieri
Download or read book Genetic Engineering in Agriculture written by Miguel A. Altieri and published by Food First Books. This book was released on 2004 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As debate rages over the costs and benefits of genetically engineered crops, noted agroecologist Miguel Altieri lucidly examines some of the issue's most basic and pressing questions: Are transgenic crops similar to conventionally bred crops? Are transgenic crops safe to eat? Does biotechnology increase yields? Does it reduce pesticide use? What are the costs to American farmers? Will biotechnology benefit poor farmers? Can biotechnology coexist with other forms of agriculture? What are the known and potential environmental and biological risks? What alternatives do we have to genetically modified crops?
