Zusammenfassung:"Explore the late twentieth century history and development of plant, animal, and human genetics in this collection of 135 documents. Students, teachers, and interested readers can use this valuable resource to trace the different arguments and concerns surrounding the controversial topic of genetic engineering. Arranged topically, this volume provides an excellent background for research and debate with its broad range of pro and con opinions. With its easy to use format the reader is able to focus on one particular aspect of genetic engineering or to compare and contrast the arguments presented in more than one area. The six different areas included are: Animal Applications, Agriculture, The Human Genome Project, Issues in Research, Ethical Issues, and Cloning. The documents in each section, carefully selected to represent a wide range of positions, present samples of social, ethical, and religious commentary that have evolved due to developments in modern genetics as they relate to plants, animals, and humans."--BOOK JACKET.
