In this lecture presented by the
Intercollegiate Studies Institute
, Peter Augustine Lawler offers some of his projections on how biotechnology will alter some basic human freedoms and what this will mean for western democracy. With humor and biting insight, Lawler envisions a time when scientific advances have allowed us to eradicate genetic disease, design our offspring, and meticulously balance our mood. If this is indeed a likely scenario, Lawler feels that the implications within a democratic society are wide-reaching and difficult to predict.
