Anderson, Clifton E.
The Futurist, Sep/Oct 2005, v39, #5, pp38-42
There is no central planning and policy-framing agency overseeing genetic engineering in the United States, although other nations have such agencies.

Andersen is a University of Idaho professor emeritus in the field of agricultural communications.
