Soft cover. Condizione: Good. 1st Penguin Edition. Paperback. Small tick in pen in margin of page 110 and page 118. In this book, the author, one of the world's leading genetists, provides a thought-provoking overview of bith the successes and limitations of modern biology, making a powerful challenge to the increasingly orthodox claim that all of human existence is controlled by our DNA. He questions the assumptions that have been made based on this belief and its influence on the direction of biological research, in particular the Human Genome Project, which seeks to determine the complete DNA sequence that makes up human genes. He shows how the ideology of biological determinism has been used to explain and justify inequalities within and between societies and to claim that those inequalities can never be changed. Equally, social and economic factors can exert powerful influences on biological research. Only by adopting a reasonable sceptcisism towards the sweeping claims that have been made of the benefits to humankind of modern science will we begin to understand its real values as well as its limitations. 128 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.).…
