Synopsis "genetically engineered marine organisms"

genetically engineered marine organisms: environmental and economic risks and benefits provides a comprehensive, multidisciplinary overview of the environmental, economic, and regulatory implications of advances in marine biotechnology. the book has been specifically designed to bridge the gap between the rapidly advancing marine biotechnology industry and the government agencies that are responsible for risk assessment and regulation. editors raymond zilinskas and peter balint have brought together experts in risk assessment, marine ecology, biotechnology, economics, and the law, to provide a unique way of examining complex issues in marine biotechnology. the contributors present innovative and challenging recommendations for protecting public health and the environment, while encouraging the development of beneficial new products in the field of marine biotechnology. as an added feature, each chapter includes a comprehensive, up-to-date bibliography. genetically engineered marine organisms: environmental and economic risks and benefits will prove invaluable to students, researchers and public employees involved with risk assessment. the book will appeal to industry personnel involved with the preparation of marine biotechnology products; scientists and administrators involved with applied research in marine biotechnology; policy analysts concerned with the economics of marine fisheries; and university personnel who focus on the interaction of risk, technology, and public policy.
