by Clarisa Long (Author)
This is an essential and timely exploration of the genetic information age, where Clarisa Long and five distinguished scholars tackle the gripping questions of genetic privacy, genetic discrimination, DNA ownership, gene therapy, biotechnology regulation, medical ethics, employer and insurer access to genetic records, and disability rights under the Americans with Disabilities Act, forcing us to ask what it means to be human when our genes can be read, edited, and used.
In this study, leading scholars confront the question: should individuals be allowed personal property rights to their DNA, cells, or tissues?
