Kritik
From the reviews:



"Betta offers a collection of essays concerned with the 'new genetics,' that is, the 'convergence of knowledge fields such as biology, computer science, chemistry, physics, and engineering'. ... The opening and closing chapters of the book present the most interesting material for those interested in applied ethics. ... if one is looking for a list of the imperative looming on the genetic horizon, then this book makes an important contribution." (Jeremy Green, Metapsychology Online Reviews, Vol. 11 (51), 2007)mehr
