reviewed Improving Nature?: The Science and Ethics of Genetic Engineering on April 29, 2012

Improving Nature?

Has some gaps that I find serious and the writing style is too heavy on conveying facts and not heavy enough on knitting them together to a compelling story of public health. Still, it's a useful book -- I appreciate the emphasis on community and the colorful design.
