Review:

"Discusses the controversy surrounding genetic engineering. Genomics has proved that the more science learns about this subject, the more complicated the expression of genes proves to be. In three chapters, genetic engineering in agriculture and industry, medicine, and the genetic enhancement of human abilities is explored. Essays use graphs, statistics, research and clinical trials to discuss genetic engineering and its impact on society and the need for regulation. Includes Organizations to Contact and Index."
