Description
Until now, human evolution has been exceedingly slow. But now, it will soon be possible for parents to consciously choose the genes of their children. The ramifications could be enormous, with each generation smarter, more technologically proficient, and better able to design the genes of their own offspring. An expert in human gene modification and research explores the ethical questions surrounding science's new power to guide the genetic destiny of humanity.
