The Genomics Age
de Gina Smith · Publicada por primera vez en 2004
"Since the advent of life, every creature has been beholden to its genetic blueprint. But mankind has never fully accepted the design, and human history is woven out of our perpetual attempts to redraw it. The latest manifestations of this quest are major developments in DNA technology. These advances have presented us with an almost inconceivable array of opportunities - and with them a daunting vortex of ethical and social issues." "The Genomics Age is your guide to this startling new reality, a very near future in which science will empower us to make decisions with profound biological, moral, economic, and societal implications. Gina Smith explains the history and technology behind these advances, and probes the fundamental questions they pose."--Jacket.
