Binding: paperback Size: mass market Pagination: 272pp Published: Dell, 1977 Condition: Very good; some dinginess and light shelfwear of covers from storage; spine uncreased from reading, but rumpled from original bindery; interior clean and complete ISBN: 0440195047 [OCR is approximate, as always] Is Brave New World already here? Recombinant DNA. Genetic Engineering These two phrases resonate with overwhelming, frightening implications. They lie at the heart of a new technology considered by many to be a greater threat than the H-bomb. They place the almighty power into the hands of a few to artificially alter —and create — new forms of life on this planet. WHO SHOULD PLAY GOD? lifts the cloak of secrecy from these astounding experiments and explains what recombinant DNA is, how genetic engineering works, who is conducting the re-search, who stands to profit from it, and what it means to the future of life on earth. "WHO SHOULD PLAY GOD? contains a massive amount of data on one of the most important issues to face society and should be read by everyone interested in life on our planet." -Dr. Liebe F. Cavalieri, Sloan-Kettering Institute "This book is must reading for those who want to understand the roots of the present recombinant DNA controversy." -Dr. Jon Beckwith, Harvard Medical School Take a close look at the auction images for details of contents and condition.
