Altering Eden: The Feminization of Nature - Hardcover

"Deeply disturbing...A vitally important new book." - Daily Mail

"A very significant book...an excellent picture of the scientific investigation of this complex problem which could affect us all...Her book raises issues that should make the anxieties that have been raised over the cloning of Dolly the sheep look less important than a mosquito bite...a fascinating story." -- Lewis Wolpert, The Times (London)

"Unsettling....This story needs to be repeated, and its grimmer details dwelt upon, until it provokes action instead of unease." -- Mark Kohn, Independent on Sunday

"With a plot as strong as this, The Feminization of Nature could not fail to be gripping. She has researched her subject in extraordinary depth, and the result is a thorough, level-headed and sophisticated book." - Stephen Young, BBC

"A readable, concise and accessible account...Her book reads like a detective story, as in fact it is: and it conveys the excitement of discovery very well...[Readers] will be enthralled." --Theodore Dalrymple, Sunday Telegraph
