Vremia genoma:Kak geneticheskie tekhnologii meniaiut nash mir i chto eto znachit dlia nas - Lipkin S.M., Luoma Dzh.

How does the rapid development of genetics change the world and what will be our future? Almost every week, the media headlines about new, exciting advances in genetics that promise us longevity without disease. Full genomic sequencing allows us to identify previously undiagnosed diseases, detect cancer at an early stage, learn the secrets of our ancestry. It would seem that all that remains is to take advantage of all these new opportunities. But is it that simple? The authors of the book, Dr. Stephen Lipkin and the scientific journalist John Luoma, show both the enormous potential and serious dangers of genetic technologies.
