George Myerson

Genetically modified (GM) food is a worldwide issue of public concern. Since the mid-1990s, genetic crises and fears have captured center stage in the media, politics and ethics. GM food messes up the purity of natural divisions. This book dissects the genetic debate, from the Flavr Savr tomato to the cancer-programmed lab rat, UncoMouse. Haraway asks the difficult questions, taking us into the ambiguous and unsettling terrain of cyborg hybrids, the spliced new beings who erase the pre-existing categories of 'human¿ and 'non-human¿. Myerson discusses this far-ranging controversy, from Greenpeace and Monsanto to genetics, hypercapitalism, World Wide Webs and the dawning of the 21st-century 'FemaleMan¿. Compact format.
