Space exploration. Cloning. The Internet. In the past, such modern scientific marvels would have been dismissed as the wildest excesses of science fiction. Yet the age in which humans discovered DNA—the blueprint of all life on earth—has also seen the development of terrifying weapons capable of destroying all such life, as well as a heightened public consciousness about science and technology.
Eric G. Swedin, Ph.D., is on the faculty at Weber State University, Ogden, UT.
