Biological Resource Management Connecting Science and Policy
Editat de Ervin Balazs, Ennio Galante, James M. Lynch, James S. Schepers, Jean-Pierre Toutant, Dietrich Werner, P.A.T.J. Werryen Limba Engleză Paperback – 21 dec 2012
The application of new production methods in the food industry - genetic engineering in plants and animals - as well as recent crises over food-borne diseases have led consumers to a growing concern about science as an appropriate basis for developing sound agricultural policies. This book presents the discussion of scientists and politicians in the framework of an OECD programme conference on how to restore public trust in the application of new scientific achievements concerning food production.
