Hacking Darwin: Genetic Engineering and the Future of Humanity by Jamie Metzl

4.0

“As AI and big-data analytics lead to more discoveries about the human genome, our increased ability to use advanced reproductive technologies to cure hereditary diseases will lead us into a new era of screening, altering and writing genetic code.

The parental instinct to protect offspring and international competition will lead to the universal adoption of these technologies.

It is up to individuals, nations and the international community to create educational and regulatory bodies and ensure that the genetic revolution leads to a brighter future.”

This was, in quite some time now, the most fascinating and pretty darn frightening book I have read.
