Adam, Eve, and the genome

Susan Brooks Thistlethwaite, Susan B. Thistlethwaite

About this book

"Part 1 of the book places genetic research in historical perspective, including the historical prickliness between science and religion. Part 2 probes the deepest religious question raised by genetic research: what it means to be human, especially in the coming "biological age." Finally, Part 3 takes up specific social issues about race, freedoms, fairness, and the social context and consequences of advanced science."--BOOK JACKET.
