Explore the persistent controversy surrounding GM crops in ‘GM Crops and the Global Divide’ by Jennifer Thomson. Despite over two decades of safe commercial cultivation, negative sentiment, often rooted in historical colonial influences and trade dynamics, hinders adoption in Western nations and, critically, across Africa and Asia. This book delves into how unfounded concerns about genetically modified crops negatively impact agricultural productivity and food security in developing countries. Discover how these attitudes prevent the widespread use of potentially life-saving crops, especially vital in the face of climate change. Thomson, author of ‘Genes for Africa’, offers a clear scientific account to counter anti-GM opinions and bridges this crucial global divide for improved nutrition and agricultural resilience.
