The scientists and activists contributing to The Politics of Pesticides, edited by long-time Green activist Mitchel Cohen, explore not only the dangers of glyphosate - better known as Roundup - but the campaign which ended with glyphosate declared as a cancer-causing agent.

The Politics of Pesticides explores the best strategies for winning the struggle for healthy foods and a clean environment.
