Phantoms in the machine: GM corn spreads to Mexico

from The Age (Australia). This is an edited extract from the recently published book entitled, The World According to Monsanto: Pollution, Politics and Power, by Marie-Monique Robin. 

I found this excerpt to be most fascinating in its details about the apparent political impact that biotechnology industry has had on scientific research, academia, and science publications in addition to the spread of trans-genes to other varieties of corn and their unusual effects.
