Written by an eminent philosopher, this book probes into the medical, social and political implications of the Human Genome Project, the ongoing revolution of new molecular genetics. More immediate and often more interesting than the actual scienceof the project, these issues are presented in depth, going beyond the superficial accounts of previous attempts. The result is stimulating, and evidence of the fact that playing God with a species is not a subject that can be taken lightly.
