Genetically Engineered Food: Changing the Nature of Nature
Revised and Updated Second Edition
by Martin Teitel, Ph.D., and Kimberly Wilson
Picture a world
* Where the french fries you eat are registered as a pesticide, not a food.
* Where vegetarians unwittingly consume fish genes in their tomatoes.
* Where corn plants kill monarch butterflies.
* Where soy plants thrive on doses of herbicide that kill every other plant in sight.
* Where multinational corporations own the life forms that farmers grow and legally control the farmers actions. That world exists These things are all happening, and they are happening to you. Genetically engineered foods--plants whose genetic structures are altered by scientists in ways that could never occur in nature--are already present in many of the products you buy in supermarkets, unlabeled, unwanted, and largely untested. The threat of these organisms to human and environmental health has caused them to be virtually banned in Europe, yet the U.S. government, working hand-in-hand with a few biotech corporations, has actively encouraged their use while discouraging labeling that might alert consumers to what they are eating. The authors show what the future holds and give you the information you need to preserve the independence and integrity of our food supply. What can you do? First, inform yourself.

Hemp for Health: The Medicinal and Nutritional Uses of Cannabis Sativa
by Chris Conrad
Hemp, Cannabis sativa, is one of the world's oldest sources of food and medicine, with a history that dates back ten thousand years. It relieves glaucoma, epilepsy, migraines, insomnia, asthma, the nausea associated with AIDS and chemotherapy, and a host of other illnesses. It was once a staple in every American medicine cabinet, but because hemp is the plant from which marijuana is derived, it has been unavailable to consumers until recently. Now products made from imported hempseed are sold by stores and mail-order companies across the United States to satisfy a growing demand. Hemp for Health reveals the developments that have returned this ancient plant to the forefront of health and nutrition and that have doctors calling for its legalization.

101 Ways That Hemp Can Save Our World by Rowan Robinson
