There is also an extended discussion of the possible changes in our agriculture practices and consequences for the environment. Cultured Meat features an in-depth analysis of possible technical solutions for cultured food production and future development as well as a discussion on the benefits for health and issues of public acceptance.This is the first book devoted to cultured meat which is accessible and of interest to both experts and the general public.
