I do not want to doubt the intentions behind the book's advocacy for marrying organic farming and genetic manipulation. The effort to raise yields while maintaining ecological balance is supposed to be a noble cause. The biggest concern I have on genetically manipulated crops is their effects on the immune systems of humans and the animals who ingest them. Since genetical engineering is a relatively new and cutting-edge technology, research on the long-term health ramifications on the individuals and their offspring remain scant. In other words, we really do not know how the GE crops are affecting our bodies, our reproductive cells, and our next generations' physiology. I'd stick with "purely" organic stuff as much as possible. My children may still come out weird and retarded, but I cannot blame it on the GE food I ate.
