Leading scientists explain the nature and goals of `test-tube' reproduction and genetic engineering, and their eugenic implications. In contrast to the Warnock report, issues are considered in a social ethic - rather than individualistic - context.

In this revised edition with a new preface from the editor, leading scientists explain the nature and goals of `test tube' reproduction and genetic engineering, and their eugenic implications. In contrast to the Warnock report, the extended commentary considers the issues in the context of a social ethic rather than the individualist viewpoint.
