The book exposes 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. Monsanto currently 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.
Selected as a finalist for the New York Public Library's 2011 Helen Bernstein Book Award for Excellence in Journalism, "The World According to Monsanto" is positioned to increase awareness of a serious threat to our food supply.
