More than 600 scientists from 72 countries have called for a moratorium on the environmental release of genetically modified organisms (GMOs). This book represents the research and concerns of many of these scientists. The evidence they have compiled makes a strong case for a worldwide ban on GM crops to make way for a comprehensive shift to sustainable agriculture and organic farming.

Genetic engineering of food crops is an ecological and health crisis that affects us all. Its consequences are global and potentially irrevocable. Learn the basis of the decisions your government and major multinational corporations are now making for you. And begin to take the future into your own hands by consuming organic foods.

"This outstanding compilation by the world’s leading experts provides overwhelming evidence that GM foods and crops are dangerous to human health and the environment. So many of the assumptions underlying industry’s safety claims have been proven wrong, it’s astonishing that GMOs are still allowed on the market. The case made in this pivotal work is clear: Remove GMOs or face a potential disaster. I hope it’s not too late."

Jeffrey M. Smith, Author, Seeds of Deception

"ISIS makes a compelling case for a genetically modified free world--at least for the immediate future. Their cautious, thoughtful and scientifically adept treatment of the full breadth of argument pro and con is admirable. In particular, they point to the cascade of risks stemming from uncontrolled pollination and other outside-the-species movement of introduced genes, including permanent loss of genetic integrity, evolutionary disruption and contamination of the natural lineage of species that have evolved over millenia with their own genetic mechanisms.

GM-Free is a profound indictment of our rush to commercialize genetic material. It belongs on everyone's bookshelf."

"GM-Free" does a wonderful job of explaining why genetically modified foods are not safe for human health or the environment. The dedicated scientists who have teamed up to produce this landmark document realize the importance of getting the truth out to the public. This is essential reading for everyone concerned about the future of global agriculture and the sustainability of our planet."
