Exploring the tension between scientific advancement and public perception, the book addresses the moral dilemmas surrounding genetic engineering. Michael Hauskeller introduces the concept of 'biological integrity' to analyze and validate public fears, suggesting that these concerns, often dismissed as irrational, can be philosophically justified. By delving into the ethical implications and societal impacts of genetic technologies, the author aims to bridge the gap between scientific optimism and public skepticism.
