At the dawn of the genetics revolution, our DNA is becoming as readable, writable, and hackable as our information technology. But as humanity starts retooling our own genetic code, the choices we make today will be the difference between realizing breathtaking advances in human well-being and descending into a dangerous and potentially deadly genetic arms race. Enter the laboratories where scientists are turning science fiction into reality. Look towards a future where our deepest beliefs, morals, religions, and politics are challenged like never before and the very essence of what it means to be human is at play. When we can engineer our future children, massively extend our lifespans, build life from scratch, and recreate the plant and animal world, should we? Passionate, provocative, and highly illuminating, Hacking Darwin is the must-listen book about the future of our species for fans of Homo Deus and The Gene. 538 $a Mode of access: World Wide Web. 650 0 $a Genetic engineering $x Moral and ethical aspects. 650 0 $a Human genetics. 700 1 $a Martin, Eric. 710 2 $a hoopla digital. 856 40 $u https://www.hoopladigital.com/title/12350032 $z Instantly available on hoopla. 856 42 $z Cover image $u https://d2snwnmzyr8jue.cloudfront.net/rcb_9781684417391_180.jpeg 941 $a 1 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20190802010404.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=310756EAA78F11E99DEDB91B97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
