Double-weighted statement
This is a substantial monograph covering considerable ground. It has a very broad scope, giving coverage to the governance of all types of genetic resources (human, animal, plant, microbial and synthetic), sub-sets of genetic resources, and the global issues relevant to them (including food security, climate change, public health, ownership, access and benefit sharing, and inequities in scientific and technological capacities). It is this scope which makes it a particularly valuable contribution to the literature in this area.
