關於產品
Product Information
Forget worries about cloning people. In the future, technological advances will bring far more meaningful and controversial changes to our offspring, says Gregory Stock. As scientists rapidly improve their ability to identify and manipulate genes, people will want to protect their future children from diseases, help them live longer, and even influence their looks and their abilities. Stock, an expert on the implications of recent advances in reproductive biology, clearly shows that neithergovernments nor religious groups will be able to stop the coming trend of choosing an embryo's genes.

Reviews
"Even though the prospect of altering human heredity is a subject of enormous scientific and ethical importance, and looms as a near-horizon prospect, it has been under-emphasized in research and largely neglected by public philosophers. Stock provides us with a clearly written and balanced briefing that deserves special attention." --Edward O. Wilson, "REDESIGNING HUMANS's advocacy of DNA-improved human destinies reveals the compassionate side of science." --James D. Watson "Gregory Stock's intellectual brilliance has brought us a wonderful book that is fascinating to read and that everyone needs. And his style is fluent and attractive. Whether or not you share his vision of the future, this book will enthrall you." --Sherwin B. Nuland, author of LEONARDO DA VINCI and HOW WE DIE "Even though the prospect of altering human heredity is a subject of enormous scientific and ethical importance, and looms as a near-horizon prospect, it has been under-emphasized in research and largely neglected by public philosophers. Stock provides us with a clearly written and balanced briefing that deserves special attention." --Edward O. Wilson "Gregory Stock has the imagination, courage, and scientific vision to look our future square in the face. This is the most important book ever written about what we could do to make better people. I could not put this book down because it challenged everything I thought I knew about human nature." --Glenn McGee, author of THE PERFECT BABY "Whether or not you agree with Stock's provocative vision of the human future, you will come away with a deepened understanding of the immense challenges ahead." --Alvin Toffler "A breath of fresh air to fuel the debate now raging in Congress and the White House..." Kirkus Reviews "Stock...explains the technologies of cloning, embryo selection and genetic modification, making clear what seems possible in the near future..." --Rebecca Skloot The Chicago Tribune "Stock...writes with a clear, lucid style..." --Robert Winston Nature "...compelling reading, fascinating and frightening at the same time." --Fred Bortz Dallas Morning News "Stock...gives a lucid overview of the new biotechnology...[and] thoughtfully weighs the ethical dilemmas such advances present...impressive." Publishers Weekly, "Whether or not you agree with Stock's provocative vision of the human future, you will come away with a deepened understanding of the immense challenges ahead." --Alvin Toffler, Stock...gives a lucid overview of the new biotechnology...[and] thoughtfully weighs the ethical dilemmas such advances present...impressive., "Gregory Stock has the imagination, courage, and scientific vision to look our future square in the face.
