Life, Liberty and the Defense of Dignity - The Challenge for Bioethics Summary
| Trained as a medical doctor and biochemist, Dr. Kass has become one of our most provocative thinkers on bioethical issues. Here he offers a book that grapples with the moral meaning of the new biomedical technologies now threatening to take us back to the future envisioned by Aldous Huxley in Brave New World. In a series of meditations on cloning, embryo research, the sale of organs, and the assault on mortality itself, Kass questions the wisdom of trying to break down our natural boundaries and to remake the human body into an instrument of our will. Leon Kass writes profoundly about the limits of science and the limits of life, about what makes us human and gives us human dignity. |
