Don't worry, it's safe to eat - the true story of GM food, BSE and foot and mouth

This book exposes the inherent anomalies of our food production system, using BSE, genetic modification (GM) and foot and mouth disease as examples. Presenting the untold story of these crises, the author uncovers how critical scientists were marginalised while commercial interests, macro-economic policies and trade concerns overruled common sense and health protection.
