With the ability to alter the genetic structure of every living organism, we are rapidly approaching an era where we will be able to produce animals on demand, and treat psychological and social problems with genetic tinkering. Do we possess the morality to use our abilities wisely? Examining this question from both scientific and philosophical perspectives, the author of this book argues that we have learned this morality - but we need to rediscover it. Should we pursue genetic engineering? Depending on whether we rediscover this moral code, he answers yes, no, or maybe.

"Herr Keller's politics were dead wrong. The Nazi politician was found murdered and mutilated in a seedy hotel off Marx-Engels Strasse. The German authorities wanted to put the Kurds in the frame, but Network 17 journalist Roger Devereaux had other ideas. Just what was Keller's link to Orpheus Pharmaceuticals and its covert provision of weapons of mass destruction to the Emirate of Abu Khan? And how did Keller's death connect to the sophisticated theft of 'Leikenthropp' chemicals from a plant in Cornwall, by a Republican splinter group suspected of links to the secret state?" Political thriller.
