The Case against Perfection

Ethics in the Age of Genetic Engineering

Omschrijving

Believing the quest to attain human perfection endangers the view of human life as a gift, argues against proposals to bioengineer human life through cloning and gene modification Genetic breakthroughs present us with a predicament: is it wrong to re-engineer our nature? Sandel explores the moral quandaries surrounding the quest to perfect ourselves and our children. He concludes that the pursuit of perfection is flawed for reasons beyond safety and fairness; it also suggests a failure to appreciate human achievements.
