"[Tomorrow's Table" is a fantastic piece of work.
I totally recommend it whether you are pro GMO or anti-GMO." "This is an important book... I agree with the authors that we will need the best ideas from "organic" thinkers and from scientists – including genetic engineers – to feed the world and help the poorest...I certainly recommend this book"--
Bill Gates
"Here's a persuasive case that, far from contradictory, the merging of genetic engineering and organic farming offers our best shot at truly sustainable agriculture"--
Stewart Brand, creator of the Whole Earth Catalog
We found the book insightful and well-documented." --
Organic Gardening Magazine
"Whether you ultimately agree with it or not, Tomorrow's Table bring a fresh approach to the debate over transgenic crops."--
Michael Pollan, author of
In Defense of Food and
The Omnivore's Dilemma
"The noteworthy aspect of the book is the way they then marry their separate fields to argue logically for the use of GM technologies to improve organic agriculture." --
Science magazine
"Brilliant... the best book I have ever read about the ways in which genetically engineered and organic food relate to each other and society." --
Michael Specter, Staff writer for
The New Yorker
"A unique, personal perspective ... Highly recommended." -- Peter H. Raven, President,
Missouri Botanical Garden
"A tale of the passions of an organic farmer and a plant genetic scientis...a source of inspiration." -- Sir Gordon Conway KCMG FRS, Professor of International Development,
Centre for Environmental Policy, Imperial College, London, and past President of the
Rockefeller Foundation
"Simply one of the best scientific presentations of organic agriculture I have read in that it is soundly grounded in the literature and does not over-reach, while remaining staunchly and reasonably pro-organic." -- Phil Stewart
"This wildly eccentric book juxtaposes deep scientific analysis of genetically engineered agriculture with recipes for such homey kitchen staples as cornbread and chocolate chip cookies." -- Booklist
Tomorrow's Table in the classroom at Oregon State University:
"I really enjoyed the book. It did a great job of keeping everything in perspective. Use again!"
"Use again! A great resource and easy to understand"
"The textbook was great. It had a story line to it. It was easy to remember."

Arg! I've come to completely ignore book recommendations on scienceblogs, unless it's really old.
They're never available anywhere! Google, ixquick, the piratebay, booktorrentz, Emule, limewire, I've tried EVERYTHING.
I've tried all the different permutations I can think of "tomorrow's table" "tomorrows table" + authors +torrent, misspelling, it's ain't out there. It's a myth.

Hello
I'm a great fan of Tomorrow's Tablle book.
We are now translating it into Japanese and the japanese book will be published next year.
Actually, I feel a little bit scared because most Japanese people have negative opinion to GE.
I could ask Bill g. to write to Japanese people and to recommend for reading our books.

Dear Yoko,
I am delighted to hear that you are translating Tomorrow's Table into Japanese. I realize it is quite a bit of work. Would you please let me know the name of the Japanese publisher and the date that you expect it will be available?
Apparently there are also Korean and Turkish translations underway as well.
Thank you for taking time to write and good luck with your project.
All the best,
Pam
