Hardcover. Zustand: Good. Hardcover, no dust jacket. Brown cloth over boards with gold lettering to spine. Dated 1946 on copyright and title page. 435 pages. Good condition. Binding is strong and tight. Spine and corners lightly bumped. The cloth is beginning to wear through in these areas. Pages evenly toned throughout, but free of notes and marks. This book appears to be an ex-library copy- there are a few penciled reference numbers and the residue of a library sticker to the rear endpapers. A piece of dark brown cloth is glued to the foot of the spine, I assume to cover library numbers. Overall good condition. Please email with questions or to see any photos.

Zustand: as new. Cambridge, MA.: The MIT Press, 2005. Paperback. 422 pp. Papers from a conference held in spring 2001 at the University of Scranton. - As our scientific and technical abilities expand at breathtaking speeds, concern that modern genetics and bioengineering are leading us to a posthuman future is growing. Is Human Nature Obsolete? poses the overarching question of what it is to be human against the background of these current advances in biotechnology. Its perspective is philosophical and interdisciplinary rather than technical; the focus is on questions of fundamental ontological importance rather than the specifics of medical or scientific practice. The authors-all distinguished scholars in their fields-take on questions about technology's goals and values that are often ignored or sidelined in the face of rapid scientific advances and the highly specialized nature of technical knowledge. The essays included represent a rich variety of thought, ranging from finely nuanced philosophical and theological arguments to historical studies and cultural commentaries. Several explore the historical background of today's biotechnology: Timothy Casey traces such developments as the emergence of cybernetic humanity from Cartesian dualism, and Diane Paul presents the history of positive versus coerced eugenics. Jean Bethke Elshtain discusses cloning as a messianic project to perfect the body and exclude natural diversity-giving as an example the elimination of Down Syndrome as an acceptable human type-while Harold Baillie calls for an examination of the metaphysical roots of personhood. Robert Proctor finds no evidence in paleontology for any essence of humanity, and Tom Shannon argues against materialist reductionism. Addressing social concerns, Lisa Sowle Cahill finds the possibility of a political solution to the problems raised by genetic engineering in Catholic teachings on social justice, and Langdon Winner looks critically at the scientific enthusiasts of a posthuman future. Taken as a whole, the book provides a humanistic overview of a subject too often considered only in its technological aspect. English text. Condition : as new. Condition : as new copy.
