The book delves into the history of plant improvement, highlighting humanity's long-standing efforts to enhance agricultural plants through practices like massal selection. It critiques the notion that early agricultural practices were wholly beneficial, pointing out that domestication often led to plants that, while useful, struggle to survive in the wild. The text also addresses the modern perception of GMOs, clarifying the misconceptions surrounding genetically modified organisms and their implications in agriculture and food production.
