While answering the questions raised by consumers of genetically modified foods-foods that have the potential to solve many of the world's hunger and malnutrition problems, to protect and preserve the environment by increasing yield, and to reduce reliance on chemical pesticides and herbicides-Dr. Jumba also delves into the many challenges that lie ahead for governments, especially in the areas of safety testing, the application of these products in medicine, regulation, international policy and food labeling.
