| 课程简介: | Recent developments in the biological sciences have offered new possibilities, among them genetic engineering. Genetically modified plants and animals have become a reality, although all ethical issues have not been resolved. Even more serious ethical objections have been raised against attempting genetic modifications of human beings. Since recently, a lot of experimental work is being done with embryos which are hybrids between man and different animals, particularly in the UK, after having been authorized by the new legislation. Even before, a number of different human-animal mixtures have been proposed and many have actually been successfully produced. Allowing such beings to be born and mature, as recommended by some utilitarian ethicists would open difficult ethical and legal dilemmas. The Scottish Council on Human Bioethics has called for a European ethical debate, but so far this has not been considered. Human-animal hybrids and chimeras, produced for industrial and military purposes, as well as for pleasure would change some of the foundations of our present societies. |
