Ethical Issues in Biotechnology (review)

For several years, Richard Sherlock and John Morrey have been offering a course at Utah State University on the ethics of biotechnology. Finding no book adequate to their needs in teaching this course, they decided to create one of their own. Wisely using readings and source material that had been successful in class, they determined to put together an anthology that would do two things: attempt to rectify the disconnect between interest and knowledge in the field of biotechnology, and do so in a way that honors the principles of balance and "teachability." They have met these objectives in exemplary fashion, and all of us who are involved in ethics and biotechnology should be immensely grateful for their efforts
