| Have North Americans become unwitting guinea pigs for multinationals that are blithely disregarding millions of years of evolution? In just a few short years, genetically modified plants have become part of the daily diet and are already found in 75% of processed foods. This revolution has occurred without consumer awareness and without the knowledge of the potential risks to human health and to the environment. Many scientists and farmers vigorously condemn the absence of adequate independent testing. The Genetic Takeover takes a sober look at a potentially explosive situation. In response to consumer demands, many European and Asian countries have instituted mandatory labelling of genetically modified foods. North America, however, has not. In their relentless fight for profits, the industrial giants seem willing to ignore basic safety rules. Can food crops, a vital element of the collective wealth of this planet, remain at the mercy of private interests?
