Rapid advances in genetic engineering and novel reproductive technologies have left the public somewhat bewildered and struggling to keep up, and Christians in particular understandably anxious that the science is progressing too fast to allow adequate biblical and ethical reflection.
In this book the authors, one a biological scientist and the other a doctor and ordained minister, give an excellent and up-to-date overview of these advances, together with a biblically based assessment of the complex ethical issues involved.
