Buy Cheap The World According to Monsanto
Hailed as “a truly eye-opening view of how American business-as-usual really works†by the Daily Kos and “an alarming and uncompromising investigation†by Le Monde, The World According to Monsanto charts award-winning journalist and documentary filmmaker Marie-Monique Robin’s three-year journey across four continents to uncover the disturbing practices of the multinational agribusiness corporation Monsanto.
A finalist for the New York Public Library’s 2011 Helen Bernstein Book Award for Excellence in Journalism, the book tells the shocking story of how the new “green†face of the world’s leading producer of GMOs (genetically modified organisms) is no less malign than its PCB- and Agent Orange–soaked past. Following its long history of manufacturing hazardous chemicals and lethal herbicides, Monsanto now controls the majority of the yield of the world’s genetically modified corn and soy—ingredients found in more than 95 percent of American households—and its alarming legal and political tactics to maintain this monopoly are the subject of worldwide concern, with baleful consequences for the world’s small-scale farmers.
Named one of the top ten environmental books to read in 2010 by Mother Nature Network, The World According to Monsanto is positioned to increase awareness of what has become a serious threat to our food supply.
