Retraction

The Review article by G. Gaskell et al., "Worlds apart? The reception of genetically modified foods in Europe and the U.S." (16 Jul. 1999, p. 384) is hereby retracted because, unknown to the authors, at the time of publication some of the data on which the article was based were not in the public domain. All the data sets in question are now in the public domain, or will be shortly, and may be obtained through the appropriate national data archives (1).
