Heredity and Hope: The Case for Genetic Screening

Heredity and Hope: The Case for Genetic Screening

by Cowan (Author), Ruth Schwartz (Author)

Synopsis

Argues that forms of genetic screening - prenatal, newborn, and carrier testing - are both morally right and politically acceptable. This book includes chapters on the often misunderstood testing programs for sickle cell anemia, and on one of the world's only mandated premarital screening programs, both of them on the island of Cyprus.
