With fresh examples and analyses throughout and a completely new introductory chapter, they further explore the alarming rise of globalization and the ever-burgeoning escalation of multinational corporate power, while shedding greater light on the pitfalls and problems of biotechnology.´ ´But this book isn´t just a catalogue of how humans are relentlessly damaging the planet´s air, soil and water and precipitating biodiversity collapse; it´s also a clarion call to action that highlights how individuals everywhere - from anti-globalization protesters to farmers challenging the pervasiveness of industrially manipulated seeds and foods - are trying to alter the perilous course we seem to have set for ourselves.´--BOOK JACKET.
