The translation of the swedish book " Bortom GMO" has been sponsored by SPPS and Anke Carius (Former Society Secretary) produced the layout. Some images and graphics have been updated and modernized by DC Sci Art. Check out her work if you ever need any illustrations for your publications or presentations.
In this book, you can read all about genetically modified plants, in an educative manner. You do not need to be a scientist to understand it but if you are, you will enjoy the chapters about their impact on economy, society and politics, how they are viewed internationally, and the comparison of the current international law.
The e-book is free to download, but please respect the copyright is owned by the authors, so cite properly and ask for permision to use images or graphics from the book (you might even be provided with a version in better resolution
)!
If you are a plant scientist and would like to support this type of initiative, please check out our Journal Physiologia Plantarum for your next publication. Everyone who would like to support SPPS can become a member. Find the 'Join' page on the maim menu. Thank you!
