Revealing common principles and "leveling the playing field," this book roughly chronicles one year in the lives of the Ronald-Adamchack family. Through dialogue with friends and family, the authors explore the use of genetically engineered (GE) agriculture and the concerns expressed by consumers. They discuss the contents of their own largely organic pantry, what they choose to feed their children, and how over the last 10 years of their marriage, they have developed a specific criteria for the use of GE in agriculture. Ronald and Adamchack explain what geneticists and organic farmers actually do and help readers distinguish between fact and fiction in the debate about crop genetic engineering.
