| Summary, etc. |
"Breakthroughs in genetics present us with a promise and a predicament. The promise is that we may soon be able to treat and prevent a host of debilitating diseases. The predicament is that our newfound genetic knowledge may also enable us to manipulate our own nature--to enhance our muscles, memories, and moods; to choose the sex, height, and other genetic traits of our children; to make ourselves 'better than well.'" (ATLANTIC MONTHLY) The author, who serves on the President's Council on Bioethics, discusses the ethics of enhancement and how the quest for perfection "threatens to banish our appreciation of life as a gift, and to leave us with nothing to affirm or behold outside our own will." |
