Genes, Trade, and Regulation by Thomas Bernauer

Offers insights into the fundamental policy issues involved in agricultural biotechnology. This book explains the global regulatory polarization and trade conflict in this area. It then evaluates cooperative and unilateral policy tools for coping with trade tensions.
Winner of the 2005 Don KPrice Award, Science, Technology, and Environmental Politics Section of the American Political Science Association "[An] important and definitive book on agricultural biotechnology and the deepening trade dispute between the United States and the European Union... Bernauer has done a first-rate job of exploring this contentious trade issue in an understandable way."--Dennis Pirages, Perspectives in Political Science "Bernauer's book is the best single reference currently available treating the regulatory struggle surrounding GE (genetically engineered) foods and food crops... Bernauer does not just skim the surface; with remarkable stamina and a sure analytical touch he lays the details of each issue carefully and thoroughly before readers. At a moment when polemics dominate most discussions of GE food policy, the Bernauer volume has arrived just in time."--Robert Paarlberg, Quarterly Review of Biology
