Synthetic Biology and Morality: Artificial Life and the Bounds of Nature (Basic Bioethics)
"Synthetic biology demands a creative response from bioethics. The editors have assembled a highly qualified group of authors who have met the challenge. This anthology is as innovative as synthetic biology itself." --Jonathan D. Moreno, David and Lyn Silfen University Professor, University of Pennsylvania"Synthetic biology is a hot topic and deserves ethical scrutiny, and this is one of the first volumes that attempts it. This is a useful contribution to bioethics and related fields." --Dale Jamieson, Director of Environmental Studies, New York University; author ofEthics and the Environment"Across the board, the clarity and directness of the writing make this collection a fine introduction to the range of views on synthetic biology from the bioethics community." --Paul B. Thompson, W. K. Kellogg Professor of Agricultural, Food and Community Ethics, Michigan State University
