Description: Now that the privatization feeding frenzy is reaching people's bodies and the genes of their potential children, scholars of biological and medical sciences, philosophy, law, and social sciences look ahead to predict who will end up owning people--probably a few biotechnology companies--and whether or not this is a good idea for anyone but those companies.
