EDITOR'S INTRODUCTION |
While genetics can be a powerful tool for medicine, it also gives rise to serious ethical questions. For example, we now have the ability to test for a specific gene that causes a high likelihood of breast cancer. But, having discovered this test, should it be used? Biologist Robert Pollack explores how DNA analysis is changing the practice of medicine and how religious thought might guide its innovations and check its excesses. |
Robert Pollack examines how genetic- and science-based medicine may be informed by religious thought.
