Our Posthuman Future: Consequences of the Biotechnology Revolution
Description:
Arguing that the greatest advances still to come will be in the life sciences, Fukuyama asks how the ability to modify human behavior will affect liberal democracy. He underlines man s changing understanding of human nature through history: from Plato & Aristotle s belief that man had natural ends to the ideals of utopians & dictators of the modern age who sought to remake mankind for ideological ends. The ultimate prize of the biotechnology revolution -- intervention in the germ line, the ability to manipulate the DNA of all of one person s descendants -- will have profound, & potentially terrible, consequences for our political order, even if undertaken by ordinary parents seeking to improve their children.
