Designing our descendants : the promises and perils of genetic modifications /

Mostrar otras versiones (2)

Annotation The Human Genome Project, discoveries in molecular biology, and new reproductive technologies have advanced our understanding of how genetic science may be used to treat persons with genetic disorders. Greater knowledge may also make possible genetic interventions to "enhance" n...
