Zusammenfassung: | Every day, headlines emphasise the impact that technology has on the manipulation of life. We all want to live longer, healthier, happier lives. To live at all costs and maintain life at all costs has become a popular aim. This book examines those costs; it probes the consequences of putting one's faith in science. It explores the belief that with science comes certainty. The use and misuse of implants, transplants, cloning, genetic manipulation, health care resources, birth and death control are debated in terms of the complex scientific, economic and ethical issues involved. |

Includes bibliographical references and index. Frontiers of knowledge: where science fiction becomes science fact -- Origins of the universe and matter -- The origin of life -- The evolution of life -- Ethical issues of implants -- Ethical issues of transplants -- Ethical issues of genetic manipulation of life -- Effects of technology on health care and resource allocation -- Ethical issues of birth control -- Ethical issues of death control -- Quantum theology: the evolution of faith. Print version record. Every day, headlines emphasise the impact that technology has on the manipulation of life. We all want to live longer, healthier, happier lives. To live at all costs and maintain life at all costs has become a popular aim. This book examines those costs; it probes the consequences of putting one's faith in science. It explores the belief that with science comes certainty. The use and misuse of implants, transplants, cloning, genetic manipulation, health care resources, birth and death control are debated in terms of the complex scientific, economic and ethical issues involved.
