Summary:
Sue Hubbell contends that the concept of genetic engineering is anything but new, for humans have been tinkering with genetics for centuries. Focusing on four specific examples corn, silkworms, domestic cats, and apples she traces the histories of species that have been fundamentally altered over the centuries by the whims and needs of people.
