We will be able to enhance many more of our abilities in more ways in the near future. Some commentators have welcomed the prospect of wide use of human enhancement technologies, while others have viewed it with alarm, and have made clear that they find human enhancement morally objectionable. 'The Ethics of Human Enhancement' examines whether the reactions can be supported by articulated philosophical reasoning, or perhaps explained in terms of psychological influences on moral reasoning. An international team of ethicists refresh the debate with new ideas and arguments, making connections with scientific research and with related issues in moral philosophy |

We humans can enhance some of our mental and physical abilities above
the normal upper limits for our species with the use of particular drug therapies
and medical procedures. We will be able to enhance many more of our abilities and
be able to do so in more ways in the not-too-distant future. Some commentators have
welcomed the prospect of human enhancement technologies becoming widely used,
while others have viewed it with alarm and have made clear that they find human
enhancement morally objectionable. Unfortunately the debate over the ethics of human
enhancement appears to have reached an impasse with proponents and opponents of
human enhancement drawing on different intellectual traditions, relying on different

we need either to find new ways of understanding the current debate or to
develop new ways of thinking about the ethics of human enhancement.
