Your Genes, Your Choices: Exploring the Issues Raised by Genetic Research
 
Table of Contents
Your Genes, Your Choices describes the Human Genome Project,
the science behind it, and the ethical, legal, and social issues that are
raised by the project. This book was written as part of the Science + Literacy
for Health project of the American Association
for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) and funded by the U.S.
Department of Energy.
AAAS has a strong commitment to science literacy and the public understanding
of science. Through its Directorate
for Education and Human Resources Programs, AAAS has been a leader
in identifying and meeting the needs of underrepresented groups in science.
Science + Literacy for Health fits into this vision of making science accessible
to everyone.
Most people think that science is remote from the work they do, the
lives they lead, and the decisions that they make day by day. Nothing could
be further from the truth. Your Genes, Your Choices points out how
the progress of science can potentially "invade" your life in the most
direct ways, affecting the choices you make at the grocery store, your
own health care and that of your family, and even your reproductive decisions.
The connection between science and health is a direct one, and your ability
to understand the science behind health affects your ability to understand
the issues and the stakes.
Science may seem difficult, because scientists often use technical language
to talk about abstract ideas. This book has been written to introduce you
to important ideas, but also to convince you that you can understand the
basic concepts of science and that it is important to do so.
Most people are curious about the way their bodies work (and the ways
they sometimes don't work very well). This curiosity goes beyond immediate
concerns about any specific health condition. We hope that Your Genes,
Your Choices helps to feed that interest.
