[167]-185) and index.The globalization of innovation -- Science-industry collaboration -- In vitro fertilization and assisted reproductive technology -- Genetically modified food -- Cloning -- Stem cell research -- Chimeras -- Pharmaceutical companies, biotechnology, and health care -- Whose ethical standards?A globalization of innovation has produced the most massive spurt in biotechnology in world history.  Businesses, universities, and non-governmental organizations are collaborating to produce a "science-industrial complex" in biotechnology.  Using case studies of stem cell research, cloning, genetically modified food, in-vitro fertilization, and chimeras in a number of Eastern and Western countries around the world, I argue that much of this biotech activity is global in nature and independent of state control.  This shift in the relative influence of state and non-state actors has led to the virtual deregulation of biotechnology and the liberation of innovation from geo-political constraints.  These trends post a number of interesting social, political, and ethical issues for the contemporary period and suggest the need to rethink how controversial moral issues are handled by the science-industrial complex.BiotechnologyGovernment policyBiotechnologyCase studiesBiotechnologyCross-cultural studiesGlobalizationElectronic books.BiotechnologyGovernment policy.BiotechnologyBiotechnologyGlobalization.660.6West Darrell M.1954-861443MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910453858403321Biotechnology policy across national boundaries2152561UNINA01443nam 2200385Ia 450 99639672110331620221108025127.0(CKB)4330000000350723(EEBO)2240953745(OCoLC)9920199500971(EXLCZ)99433000000035072319900426d1575 uy |engurbn||||a|bb|A summarie of the chronicles of England[electronic resource] from the first comming of Brute into this land, vnto this present yeare of Christ 1575 /diligently collected, corrected and enlarged, by Iohn Stowe ..Imprinted at London By Richard Tottle and Henry Binneman[1575][16], 570, [56] p. woodcut portsDate of publication suggested by STC (2nd ed.) and NUC pre-1956 imprints.Signatures: A8 2A8 B-2Q8 2R1.Includes index.Marginal notes.Title within ornamental border.Numerous errors in paging.Reproduction of original in the British Library.eebo-0018Great BritainHistoryTo 1485Great BritainHistoryTudors, 1485-1603Stow John1525?-1605.1003189EBLEBLWaOLNBOOK996396721103316A summarie of the chronicles of England2303095UNISA
