Praise
“Biopiracy is a path-breaking work on one of the most important issues of the coming century.… Vandana Shiva’s inspiring book is a clarion call … (that) should be widely read and discussed by everyone concerned by the fate of the Earth.”
—Jeremy Rifkin, author of The Third Industrial Revolution: How Lateral Power Is Transforming Energy, the Economy, and the World and The Zero Marginal Cost Society: The Internet of Things, the Collaborative Commons, and the Eclipse of Capitalism
“With her characteristic blend of analysis and passion, Vandana Shiva traces the continuity from the European colonization of ‘native’ peoples … to the present appropriation of the natural resources they need for their physical and cultural survival. An important book that should be read by anyone wanting to understand the global threat posed by the technological transformations of organisms, cells, and molecules and by their exploitation and profit.”
—Ruth Hubbard, professor emerita of biology, Harvard University
“Shiva is a burst of creative energy, an intellectual power.”
—The Progressive
“One of the world’s most prominent radical scientists.”
—The Guardian
