To what extent does a democratic society have the duty to take steps to reduce genetic disease and improve the...

Cognitive Enhancement: Social and Public Policy Issues
ISBN: 9781137572479 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Rapid advances in cognitive neuroscience and converging technologies have led to a vigorous debate over cognitive enhancement. This book outlines the ethical and social issues, but goes on to focus on the policy dimensions, which until now have received much less attention. As the economic, social and personal stakes involved with cognitive enhancement are so high, and the advances in knowledge so swift, we are likely to see increasing demands for government involvement in cognitive enhancement techniques. The book therefore places these techniques in a political context and brings the...
