Artemisia

Stephen H. Schneider in What Are you Optimistic About? suggests we should be optimistic about the behaviour of big business.
In the case of a company that is synonomous with GMO I have serious doubts that have been hugelly amplified of late. Their well-known weed-killer, which whichever way you approach it is devasting of living cells and surely does induce cancer and other conditions, so rejected by those familiar with effects in horticulture, has been unsuprisingly put forward -by the company- as a treatment for malaria. They want it to be tested, using intravenous delivery, on children in Africa.
When I think of what companies such as this are doing I am unavoidabley persuaded thay have racialist agenda. How it would get in a business based in (once upon a time in Wrexham which was progenitory, I recall to Yale itself?) St Louis Missouri, Well, I cannot imagine.

So check out Artemisia. Stephen Jones the geneticist, in his book Coral, notes how the apparent sex determinator (at least in humans) and rat-maddener Toxoplasma is closely related to Malaria.
