Content:
For more than two decades, Erik Parens has participated in the debates about using technologies like surgery and pharmacology to shape our selves - debates that have at their core the question, What does it mean for human beings to flourish? Based on his experience, he has written a book to help people who are new to bioethics to understand what such debates actually entail. They entail more than the exchange of impartial reasons. They also entail efforts by critics of and enthusiasts about technologically shaping selves to justify their own ways of being in the world.
