"""Hot topics like antibiotics, pesticides, and GMOs make up the meat of this series. Filled with dense text and quite a bit of technical detail, these topics will appeal to socially conscious readers looking to dig beyond buzzwords. The GMOs title is particularly well done, as its main aim is to explain the concept and history without using frightening misinformation that one might encounter in other spaces."" --School Library Journal, Series Made Simple (Series Review)"
