- W2506138888 abstract "The recently completed draft of the human genome sequence is literally a vision of the genetic legacy of our species, revealing the relentless evolution of DNA as millions of differences in base sequence between different individuals. These differences create the diversity of appearance and character of individual humans that is an important part of the texture of the human condition, and also the origin of genetic disease. With perhaps one in thirty births in the industrial world adversely affected to some degree by genetic disorders, what should be done about this burden? Must we accept the cruelty of fate, or is it a humane and proper thing to find solutions for those who suffer from these distressing conditions? For those who know that they carry a genetic disease, the problems of parenting are especially poignant. Most geneticists believe it is a mark of our humanity to fight the dismal consequences of genetic disease rather than to accept them passively. Surgery or organ transplantation, appropriate diet, and replacement therapy can correct, to an extent, some of these disorders. However, avoiding the birth of genetically damaged children is becoming an increasingly realistic, if controversial, option." @default.
