Comparing GM food politics in the US, Britain, and the European Union, Toke draws on insights from discourse analysis to help explain this basic political struggle of our time. By stressing the interplay between the material and discursive dimensions involved in the shaping of the conflict, the work offers a detailed account that enriches our political understanding of these 'Frankenfoods' on a variety of fronts, in particular the interplay between scientific expertise and citizens politics. Those interested in the 'risk society', both students and specialists, will find much to learn from this perceptive analysis.'\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProfessor Frank Fischer\u003c\/strong\u003e, Rutgers University, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Politics of GM Food\u003c\/em\u003e compares and explains how differing political outcomes have occurred regarding GM food and crops in the UK, USA and the EU, thus throwing light on the relationship between science and politics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dave Toke\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 041530699X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780415306997\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/27\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.14lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.56d","brand":"Dave Toke","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48086586065151,"sku":"9780415306997","price":190.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7b9a9535-870b-4191-a7d3-f7ea433c0e32.jpg?v=1769095534","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-politics-of-gm-food-dave-toke-9780415306997","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
