Description
Comment faire échec aux trafics d'organes ? Peut-on choisir le sexe de son enfant ? Ou la couleur de ses yeux ? Le diagnostic préimplantatoire, est-ce déjà de l'eugénisme ? Les assureurs auront-ils accès aux résultats d'un test génétique ? toutes ces interrogations, et beaucoup d'autres, sont nées des progrès fulgurants de la biologie et de la médecine. Plus que jamais, ces sciences inspirent de grands espoirs mêlés d'une certaine crainte. Pour la première fois, un livre fournit sur ces questions un éclairage qui ne se limite pas au plan national. Dans un style journalistique clair et accessible, émaillé de nombreux exemples, les deux auteurs rendent compte de la mosaïque de réponses apportées dans chaque pays. Ils décrivent aussi les efforts d'harmonisation entrepris au conseil de l'europe, qui devraient aboutir à l'adoption prochaine d'une convention de bioéthique applicable à l'ensemble du continent européen.
