GENES, CELLS AND BRAINS: THE PROMETHEAN PROMISES OF THE NEW BIOLOGY
Book ID/图书代码： 13850011B49081
English Summary/英文概要： Dissecting the hype from the frontiers of bioethics, genomics and neuroscience.
Our fates lie in our genes and not in the stars, said James Watson, co-discoverer of the structure of DNA. But Watson could not have predicted the scale of the industry now dedicated to this new frontier. Since the launch of the multibillion-dollar Human Genome Project, the biosciences have promised miracle cures and radical new ways of understanding who we are. But where is the new world we were promised?
In Genes, Cells, and Brains, feminist sociologist Hilary Rose and neuroscientist Steven Rose take on the bioscience industry and its claims. Examining the rivalries between public and private sequencers,the establishment of biobanks, and the rise of stem cell research, they ask why the promised cornucopia of health benefits has failed to emerge. Has bioethics simply become an enterprise? As bodies become increasingly commodified, perhaps the failure to deliver on these promises lies in genomics itself.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 对生物伦理学、基因组学和神经科学夸张的东西进行解剖。,DNA结构的共同发现者之一的詹姆斯•沃森说，我们的命运在于我们的基因，而不是星辰。但是沃森不可能预测到致力于新兴领域的这种产业的规模。自启动数十亿美元的人类基因组工程以来，生物科学领域已经承诺出奇迹般的治愈和激进的方式来理解我们是谁。但是我们被承诺的新世界在哪里？ 在《基因、细胞和大脑》这本书中，女权主义社会学家希拉里•罗斯和神经科学家斯蒂芬•罗斯开始了生物工业以及它的请求。检查公共和私人之间秩序的竞争，建立起生物银行，以及干细胞研究的兴起，他们问为什么承诺的健康幸福没能实现，生物伦理学仅仅变成企业了吗？随着身体变得越来越商品化，或许这些承诺未能兑现的原因在于基因组本身。(LNL)
