Biopiracy- The Plunder of Nature and Knowledge/ Vandana Shiva - Natraj 2012 - 180p; 21x13cm

Author traces the continuity of pillage of nature's bounties in colonised lands by European colonialists, from the days of empire to the present day, which has morphed into a contemporary conflict of corporate versus community control over resources. This book discusses the much debated issue of patents, traditional knowledge systems and the industry which is behind patenting for commercial profits. TIOOJ
