Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Daedalus; Or, Science and the Future' is a visionary and provocative exploration of the potential impact of scientific discovery on human society. Based on a lecture delivered by the renowned scientist J. B. S. Haldane at Cambridge, this influential work examines how advances in biology, che…mistry, and physics might reshape the future of the human race.Haldane introduces groundbreaking concepts such as ectogenesis-the development of human embryos in artificial environments-and discusses the profound moral and ethical dilemmas posed by genetic engineering and biotechnological innovation. By drawing parallels with the Greek myth of Daedalus, the author warns of the dual nature of scientific progress: its power to create and its potential for destruction. A foundational text in the field of futurology and a precursor to modern transhumanist thought, 'Daedalus; Or, Science and the Future' remains a compelling study of the relationship between human values and technological evolution. This work offers a fascinating glimpse into early 20th-century scientific optimism and the enduring questions surrounding the limits of human intervention in nature.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
