Sobre IBD

This book addresses an unsettling question asked in recent years about the revolutionary potential of modern biotechnology: might the knowledge being gained be used to further-rather than prevent-the spread of disease? The conventions of statecraft, science, and social research are examined to convey to readers what is at stake.
