'What would happen if the reigns of progress slipped from our hands?'
-Margaret Atwood, Oryx and Crake
From stem cell technology and genetic screening to new reproductive possibilites-the unprecedented developments in science are among the most contentious issues of our times.
In this second volume of The Alfred Deakin Debate, a leading surgeon, lawyer, ethicist, religious leader and two scientists pose crucial questions about the future we face. These incisive and wide-ranging essays explore the ethical decisions we must make and ask the question: what must we protect about our humanity for future generations?
Contributors: Baroness Helena Kennedy QC, Emeritus Professor Miles Little, Cardinal George Pell, Dr Margaret Somerville, Douglas Hilton and Sir Gustav Nossal.
