Sinossi

Food Bioengineering explores the role of biotechnology in transforming food production for a growing global population. It highlights how techniques like gene editing and transgenesis are being used to enhance nutritional value, promote sustainable agriculture, and increase disease resistance in crops and livestock. The book argues that responsible application of bioengineering can offer solutions to critical challenges in food security. For example, bioengineering can increase essential nutrients in staple crops, like Golden Rice which is engineered to produce vitamin A.

 
The book navigates the complexities surrounding GMOs by presenting a fact-based analysis of scientific evidence, regulatory frameworks, and ethical considerations. It systematically introduces food bioengineering concepts, beginning with an overview of genetic modification techniques and their historical context. It then progresses through enhancing nutrition, promoting sustainability (engineering crops to require less water or pesticides), and increasing disease resistance.

 
A unique value of this book lies in its accessible yet rigorous style, making complex scientific concepts understandable for a broad audience, including students, researchers, and policymakers.

    A searing analysis of health and illness under capitalism from hosts of the hit podcast Death Panel 
     
     
     
    Written by cohosts of the hit Death Panel podcast and longtime disability justice and healthcare activists Beatrice Adler-Bolton and Artie, Health Communism first examines how capital has instrumentalized health, disability, madness, and illness to create a class seen as "surplus," regarded as a fiscal and social burden. Demarcating the healthy from the surplus, the worker from the "unfit" to work, the authors argue, serves not only to undermine solidarity but to mark whole populations for extraction by the industries that have emerged to manage and contain this "surplus" population. Health Communism then looks to the grave threat capital poses to global public health, and at the rare movements around the world that have successfully challenged the extractive economy of health. 
     
     
     
    Ultimately, Adler-Bolton and Vierkant argue, we will not succeed in defeating capitalism until we sever health from capital. To do this will require a radical new politics of solidarity that centers the surplus, built on an understanding that we must not base the value of human life on one's willingness or ability to be productive within the current political economy. Capital, it turns out, only fears health.
