Bioethics

Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0830827838, Paperback)

"If ever there was need and opportunity for Christians to shape culture, it is now," write Charles W. Colson and Nigel M. de S. Cameron.

The contributors to "Human Dignity in the Biotech Century" make the case that biotechnology is the next front in the battles over ethics and public policy, and Christians need to bring their influence to bear on the debates. These twelve essays, contributed by scholars and leaders who are part of Colson’s Wilberforce Forum, alert readers to the ethical and legal challenges we face in the new genetics, involving embryo research, stem cell research, cloning, genetic engineering, gene therapy, pharmacogenomics, cybernetics, nanotechnology and abortion.

"We need to get a grip on biotechnology and the bioethical considerations that go along with it," Colson challenges. "It is time for people to get educated, to think about these profound moral questions that affect the future of the human race."
