"Lurquin's book is the first to describe accurately the history of plant genetic engineering. For students labouring at the bench and getting frustrated at the lack of reproducibility of their experiments, reading this work will provide reassurance. Even scientists who are no longer at the bench . . . will find it an important reminder that research is a demanding task, with much disappointment and controversy, and few successes." — Nature
