GMO Food: A Reference Handbook offers an in-depth discussion of genetically modified food. It covers the history of, opposition to, regulation of, and labeling of genetic modifications, along with the potential benefits and harm involved.This reference handbook is a research guide for young adults in high school and beyond. Students can use the book as an introduction to the history of genetic engineering of organisms and the use of this technology for the development of new forms of crops and foods.This resource outlines historic methods of plant and animal modification (such as cross-breeding) and, in more detail, explores how discoveries since the late nineteenth century have greatly changed the process of plant and animal modification. These discoveries include important steps forward in genetics, biochemistry, molecular biology, genetic engineering, and related fields. Readers will also learn about the variety of social, political, philosophical, economic, and other issues that have arisen alongside these scientific advances, as well as about some of the laws, regulations, and other solutions that have been developed for dealing with the range of attitudes about genetically modified foods.
