It can provide scientists with new ways to develop higher-yielding and more nutritious crop varieties, to improve resistance to disease, or to reduce the need for inputs of fertilizers and other expensive agricultural chemicals. This book explores the United States' ability to solve important agricultural problems, effectively use funds and institutional structures to support biotechnology research for agriculture, train researchers in new scientific areas, efficiently transfer technology, and regulate and test recombinant DNA organisms in the field. 606 $aAgricultural biotechnology$zUnited States 606 $aAgricultural biotechnology$xGovernment policy$zUnited States 606 $aAgriculture$xResearch$zUnited States 606 $aAgriculture$xResearch$xGovernment policy$zUnited States 615 0$aAgricultural biotechnology 615 0$aAgricultural biotechnology$xGovernment policy 615 0$aAgriculture$xResearch 615 0$aAgriculture$xResearch$xGovernment policy 676 $a631.3/0973 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910957209603321 996 $aAgricultural biotechnology$92036574 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02581oam 2200649I 450 001 9910973194703321 005 20251117083504.0 010 $a1-135-26538-0 010 $a1-135-26539-9 010 $a1-282-44345-3 010 $a9786612443459 010 $a0-203-86503-0 024 7 $a10.4324/9780203865033 035 $a(CKB)2550000000000868 035 $a(EBL)465324 035 $a(OCoLC)520910791 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000337657 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)12133912 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000337657 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10293170 035 $a(PQKB)10332823 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC465324 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL465324 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10358682 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL244345 035 $a(EXLCZ)992550000000000868 100 $a20180706d2010 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 00$aFifty key thinkers in criminology /$fedited by Keith Hayward, Shadd Maruna and Jayne Mooney 205 $a1st ed. 210 1$aAbingdon, Oxon ;$aNew York, N.Y. :$cRoutledge,$d2010. 215 $a1 online resource (345 p.) 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 08$a0-415-42911-0 311 08$a0-415-42910-2 320 $aIncludes bibliography and index. 327 $aBOOK COVER; TITLE; COPYRIGHT; CONTENTS; CHRONOLOGICAL LIST OF CONTENTS; ALPHABETICAL LIST OF CONTENTS; CONTRIBUTORS; INTRODUCTION; FIFTY KEY THINKERS IN CRIMINOLOGY; INDEX 330 $aFifty Key Thinkers in Criminology brings the history of criminological thought alive through a collection of fascinating life stories. The book covers a range of historical and contemporary thinkers from around the world, offering a stimulating combination of biographical fact with historical and cultural context. A rich mix of life-and-times detail and theoretical reflection is designed to generate further discussion on some of the key contributions that have shaped the field of criminology.
