Prophetically anticipated by Aldous Huxley in his dystopian 1932 novel Brave New World, genetic 'engineering' is, along with nuclear power, the most radical technology ever devised. While cybernetics garners the lion's share of attention as the sexy technology of the age, it is bio-engineering that is more likely to produce the most shocking changes to sentient life. This book covers all the angles of the uses/abuses of, objections to and possible effects of genetic manipulation...scary stuff indeed!
