Supposing you could design your child to look, feel and behave exactly as you wanted, would you be delighted or appalled?
Today genetic engineering is in its infancy. But already experiments involving gene mapping, cloning and embryo manipulation are routine. How much of this knowledge will be applied to the human embryo by the end of the century? Jonathan Glover , a moral philosopher from New College, Oxford, introduces us to some of the new developments and argues that we should sort out our attitudes to human genetic engineering now-before biology catches up with science fiction.
