Listen to a short interview with Michael Sandel. Host: Chris Gondek. Producer: Heron & Crane. Breakthroughs in genetics present us with a promise and a predicament. The promise is that we will soon be able to treat and prevent a host of debilitating diseases. The predicament is that our newfound genetic knowledge may enable us to manipulate our nature - to enhance our genetic traits and those of our children. Although most people find at least some forms of genetic engineering disquieting, it is not easy to articulate why. What is wrong with re-engineering our nature? "The Case against Perfection" explores these and other moral quandaries connected with the quest to perfect ourselves and our children. Michael Sandel argues that the pursuit of perfection is flawed for reasons that go beyond safety and fairness. The drive to enhance human nature through genetic technologies is objectionable because it represents a bid for mastery and dominion that fails to appreciate the gifted character of human powers and achievements. Carrying us beyond familiar terms of political discourse, this book contends that the genetic revolution will change the way philosophers discuss ethics and will force spiritual questions back onto the political agenda. In order to grapple with the ethics of enhancement, we need to confront questions largely lost from view in the modern world. Since these questions verge on theology, modern philosophers and political theorists tend to shrink from them. But our new powers of biotechnology make these questions unavoidable. Addressing them is the task of this book, by one of America's preeminent moral and political thinkers.

不记得为什么看《反对完美》这本书书了。先从中国人都关注的教育问题说起吧。 我似乎隐隐约约记着当年高考真的有打点滴、吸氧的事情。到现在这个年纪,就开始担心学校选择、各类培训班……中美一样重视金钱,中美一样重视教育。书里面讲到的美国家长购买学习障碍评估证明、分析...

最悲哀的莫过于随着年龄的增长而变得保守,为可以对问题进行回答而沾沾自喜,为自己少得可怜的一点知识而自鸣得意。 本文灵感来自一篇小文章,罗伯特·林德的《无知的乐趣》。 无知的乐趣 摘录其中片段开始今天的文字。 如果说人们似乎已经无所不知,那也只是因为我们几乎一无...

A very interesting book! short and concentrated. Professor Sandel talks about the ethics of genes improvement with very interesting examples.

评分

By embracing the allure and freedom of genetic engineering, humans may cure more diseases and have more control on themselves and descendants. However, we're also likely to lose the chance of fair competition, the appreciation of life and talent, and the respect for hard-working at the same time.
