* Potential Socio-Economic, Cultural and Ethical Impacts of GMOs:
Prospects for Socio-Economic Impact Assessment
Elenita C Daño, TWN 2007
http://www.biosafety-info.net/pubart.php?pid=34
Socio-economic, cultural and ethical considerations related to the use and release of GMOs are important aspects but have received less attention than the risks to the environment, health and biodiversity. This paper identifies some of the potential socio-economic impacts of GMOs and argues that they have to be taken into account as they have serious and far-reaching consequences.

Genetic Roulette
The Documented Health Risks of Genetically Engineered Foods
Yes!Books, 2007
Sixty-five health risks of the foods that Americans eat every day are presented in easy-to-read two-page spreads. The left page is designed for the quick scanning reader; it includes bullets, illustrations, and quotes. The right side offers fully referenced text, describing both research studies and theoretical risks. The second half of Genetic Roulette shows how safety assessments on GM crops are not competent to identify the health problems presented in the first half.
This book, prepared in collaboration with a team of international scientists, is for anyone wanting to understand GM technology, to learn how to protect themselves, or to share their concerns with others.

* Traavik, T and Lim, L.C. (2007) Biosafety First - Holistic Approaches to Risk and Uncertainty in Genetic Engineering and Genetically Modified Organisms
Tapir Academic Press Trondheim ISBN 978-519-2113-8
The challenges for risk identification, assessment and management posed by genetic engineering and genetically modified organisms are some of the most demanding issues facing many countries and societies today. The evolving field of biosafety has developed in response to these challenges.
Biosafety First is a stimulating collection of the latest thinking concerning biosafety science. It is a unique work as its approach to biosafety is holistic, encompassing not only the scientific, but also the socio-economic, cultural, policy and regulatory spheres. It does not claim to give all the answers, but acknowledges the issues and points to the uncertainties and knowledge gaps that still need to be addressed. Drawing on the new scientific field of ‘gene ecology’, and advocating a precautionary approach, this book provides a foundation on which countries can start to openly and responsibly appraise these new technologies and their products.

Kokkuvõte:
Teadlased on tõstatanud palju küsimusi geneetilise muundamise ja geneetiliselt muundatud organismide tagajärgedest tervisele.
Antud trükises on autorid identifitseerinud mõned oletatavad terviseriskid, mis on seotud toiduks või söödaks kasutatavate geenmuundatud taimedega.
Samuti toovad nad välja need paljud juhud ja valdkonnad, kus uuringud on olnud puudulikud.
Autorid on lähtunud sellisest teemast, nagu "geeniökoloogia" - uus, interdistsiplinaarne teadusvaldkond, mis püüab pakkuda terviklikumat lähenemist geneetilisele muundamisele.
