Book Reviews for Sex Drugs and DNA

"Stebbins lays out the truth and flays conservative propaganda and policies about stem cell research, cloning, genetic engineering, contraception and STDs, bioterrorism, the potential for pandemics, global warming, and other matters that wouldn't be controversial, or in some cases even problematic, if it weren't for mistaken, misinformed policies and venal corporations. It is far superior to the rest because it argues from fact and knowledge, not hype and politics." From the American Library Association Book List
