Illustrating the ideas with reference to well-known science fiction films and novels, the author provides a unique insight into and understanding of how genetic manipulation, cloning, and other novel bio-technologies will one day allow us to redesign our species. It also addresses the legitimate concerns about “playing God”, while at the same time embracing the positive aspects of the scientific trajectory that will lead to our transhuman future.Science and Fiction,2197-1188Genetic engineeringMedicine HealthBiomedical engineeringMedicine—PhilosophyGenetic Engineeringhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C12037Popular Science in Medicine and Healthhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Q14008Biomedical Engineering and Bioengineeringhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T2700XPhilosophy of Medicinehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E34030Genetic engineering.Medicine .Health.Biomedical engineering.Medicine—Philosophy.Genetic Engineering.Popular Science in Medicine and Health.Biomedical Engineering and Bioengineering.Philosophy of Medicine.660.65Seedhouse Erikauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut791794BOOK9910298637103321Beyond Human2519089UNINA
