A New Crime for a New Century. Biopiracy: the theft of the healing secrets of isolated native peoples. Greedy drug companies swoop down on remote tribes, steal their folk medicine and native cures, then reap tremendous profits from the patents. Some drug companies have even begun to steal human blood... Dr. Jake Scully doesn't want to think that the company he works for is exploiting anyone, let alone killing natives for the unique properties of their DNA. But if he blows the whistle on the company's criminal activities, he risks putting his own life-and his family-in danger.Christofferson, April is the author of 'Patent to Kill' with ISBN 9780812574692 and ISBN 0812574699.
