Would you be interested in reading a book like this? (The red canary by Prof. Tim Birkhead)? Why/why not?

The first question is if I would be interested in reading a book like The red canary by Prof. Tim Birkhead and why.

I used to read popular science book often and a lot.

I liked it and have read a ton of them.

But later I realized that these books are only a mental bubble gum because everything I read in them went out of my mind shortly and inevitably.

Now I prefer to read books about psychology because psychology is everywhere and I easily can use my new knowledge in a practical way.

I'm surrounded by people, by human-made artifacts and psychology is everywhere and you can see clearly all people behavior and actions through the science method.

The last popular science book that I have read is The Time Paradox by Fillipp Zimbardo.

Do you think that scientists should interfere with the genetics of plants and animals?

The second question is if I think that scientists should interfere with the genetics of plants and animals.

Yes, I think that scientists should interfere with the genetics of plants and animals.

They should develop and use the genetic engineering because the genetic engineering allow us to have healthy plants and animals and healthy food without using nitrates, insecticides, antibiotics and so on and so forth.

I think that the scientists have to develop the genetics engineering because it's the only way to avoid a starvation in the Third World Countries in the future because the population of the Third World Countries is very large.

And we have to use genetic engineering to feed all of them.

Also genetic engineering is the only way in the future to have higher standard of life because insecticides and nitrates are literally poisons and all of them influence to our health.

But having changes with the genetic engineering allow us to avoid this worse effects.

The first question is if I would be interested in reading a book like The red canary by Prof. Tim Birkhead and why.

I used to read popular science books often and a lot.

I liked it and had read a ton of them.

But later I realized that these books are only a mental bubble gum because everything I read in them went out of my mind shortly and inevitably.

So, I decided to focus on one subject that would be close to my usual everyday studies.

As I'm learning English, I chose psychology and linguistics books because these areas could help me to understand the internal structure of a language.

What's more, psychology is everywhere and I easily can use my new knowledge in everyday life.

I'm surrounded by people and things that made by people and psychology helps me better understanding people behavior and actions through the science point of view.

As for the last popular science book that I have read, it is The Time Paradox by Fillip Zimbardo.

The second question is if I think that scientists should interfere with the genetics of plants and animals.

Yes, I think that scientists should develop and use genetic engineering because it allows us to have healthy plants and animals, and therefore healthy food, without using nitrates, insecticides, antibiotics and chemicals substances.

Genetic engineering is the only way in the future to have a higher standard of life because insecticides and nitrates are literally poisons and all of them can influence on our health

Also, I think that genetic engineering will allow us to avoid negative effects of population growing.

I believe that scientists have to develop genetic modification of plants and animals because it's the only way to avoid a starvation in the Third World Countries in the future where people are numerous and poor.
