War es bislang für die Mehrheit der Öffentlichkeit schon schwierig genug, sich einen ausreichenden Wissenshintergrund für die eigene Meinungsbildung über die Gentechnik zu schaffen, so sind die zusätzlichen Aspekte wie Biodiversität. Nachhaltigkeit, wirtschaftlicher Bedarf oder ethische Fragen nicht weniger schwer in ihrer ganzen Bedeutung für die zur Diskussion stehenden Anwendung der Gentechnik zu erfassen. Es ist ein Anliegen des Arbeitskreises "Biotechnologie" der BWG, eine möglichst breit angelegte öffentliche Meinungsbildung zur Anwendung der Gentechnik zu fördern; in diesem Sinne soll das vorliegende Buch die dazu notwendigen Informationen liefern.

Policy Debates on Reprogenetics takes an in-depth look at recent public policy debates over stem cell research and therapeutic cloning in Great Britain and Germany in order to determine the effect of such debates on the progress of scientific knowledge. Svea Luise Herrmann argues that debates about government policy do not tend to lead to more societal and political control over scientific research; rather, the discussions, when framed as questions of ethics, allow societies to air anxieties without retarding or challenging scientific progress. As our understanding of genetics continues to grow, this volume will be a useful resource for scientists and policy makers alike.

In den Auseinandersetzungen um die Gentechnik spielen neben sachlichen und normativen Aspekten "Inszenierungen" eine entscheidende Rolle. Es geht nicht nur um Werturteile und Weltanschauungen, es geht auch um Einfluss, Durchsetzung, um Prestige und letztendlich um Geld und Märkte. Durch Kampagnen, durch Medien, Werbung und in Ausstellungen wird mit Mitteln der Rhetorik und Ästhetik versucht, aufzuklären, Meinungen zu bilden, zu manipulieren und zu überzeugen. Schwerpunkte dieses Bandes bilden Analysen und Erfahrungen über die Rolle von "Inszenierungen" in den Konflikten um die Gentechnik. Zusätzlich wird nach den Voraussetzungen gefragt für das Gelingen von Technikdiskursen.

Wir erleben derzeit eine neue Dimension der Gentechnik, doch wohin soll die Reise führen? Sollen wir Krankheiten therapieren oder besser genetisch reparieren? Führt die neue Gentechnik verbunden mit der modernen Reproduktionsbiologie zu Designer-Babies? Und: Dürfen wir eine Liberalisierung dieser Techniken als Bürgerwissenschaft (Citizen Science) zulassen? Neue Methoden können das Erbgut präzise verändern – und sie hinterlassen keine Spuren. Diese „Gen(om)chirurgie“ gedeiht auf dem Boden zunehmenden Wissens um die Wirkungsweise der Gene, jenen merkmalsgebenden Bereichen im Genom. Vor allem im Bereich der Züchtung widerstandsfähigerer und ertragreicherer Kulturpflanzen findet dieses Wissen seine praktische Anwendung. Und der Mensch? Der Autor zeigt, dass Genvarianten längst nicht mehr nur mit Krankheiten, sondern auch mit Ernährungsvorlieben oder Intelligenz in Verbindung gesetzt werden. Therapie- und Optimierungsmöglichkeiten liegen nahe beieinander. Welche Wirkung hat die Umwelt auf die Ausprägung des Erbguts? Gene können zu Lebzeiten durch Umwelt, Ernährung oder Erlebtes geprägt und so verändert an die Nachkommen weitergegeben werden. Hat also die Gesellschaft eine neue Form der Langzeitverantwortung für die (epi)genetische Integrität? Der Autor erklärt in diesem anschaulich und verständlich geschriebenen Buch den Stand der Gentechnologie ohne allzu viel Vorwissen vorauszusetzen und lädt zu einem offenen Dialog über dieses ambivalente Thema ein. Machen Sie sich ein eigenes Bild von den faszinierenden und doch auch einschüchternden Möglichkeiten der Gentechnik. Wie stehen Sie dazu? Mithilfe dieses Buches haben Sie die Chance sich eine differenzierte Meinung zu bilden.

Winner of 2014 AAAS/Subaru SB&F Prize for Best Young Adult Science Book Longlisted for the PEN/E.O. Wilson Literary Science Writing Award One of Nature's Summer Book Picks One of Publishers Weekly's Top Ten Spring 2013 Science Books For centuries, we've toyed with our creature companions, breeding dogs that herd and hunt, housecats that look like tigers, and teacup pigs that fit snugly in our handbags. But what happens when we take animal alteration a step further, engineering a cat that glows green under ultraviolet light or cloning the beloved family Labrador? Science has given us a whole new toolbox for tinkering with life. How are we using it? In Frankenstein's Cat, the journalist Emily Anthes takes us from petri dish to pet store as she explores how biotechnology is shaping the future of our furry and feathered friends. As she ventures from bucolic barnyards to a "frozen zoo" where scientists are storing DNA from the planet's most exotic creatures, she discovers how we can use cloning to protect endangered species, craft prosthetics to save injured animals, and employ genetic engineering to supply farms with disease-resistant livestock. Along the way, we meet some of the animals that are ushering in this astonishing age of enhancement, including sensor-wearing seals, cyborg beetles, a bionic bulldog, and the world's first cloned cat. Through her encounters with scientists, conservationists, ethicists, and entrepreneurs, Anthes reveals that while some of our interventions may be trivial (behold: the GloFish), others could improve the lives of many species-including our own. So what does biotechnology really mean for the world's wild things? And what do our brave new beasts tell us about ourselves? With keen insight and her trademark spunk, Anthes highlights both the peril and the promise of our scientific superpowers, taking us on an adventure into a world where our grandest science fiction fantasies are fast becoming reality.

Biotech companies are racing to alter the genetic building blocks of the world's food. In the United States, the primary venue for this quiet revolution, the acreage of genetically modified crops has soared from zero to 70 million acres since 1996. More than half of America's processed grocery products-from cornflakes to granola bars to diet drinks-contain gene-altered ingredients. But the U.S., unlike Europe and other democratic nations, does not require labeling of modified food. Dinner at the New Gene Café expertly lays out the battle lines of the impending collision between a powerful but unproved technology and a gathering resistance from people worried about the safety of genetic change.

In the debates about the UK's future relationship with the European Union, all sorts of possible alternatives have been bandied about, from "Singapore on Thames" to "Canada Plus", from "Switzerland" to "Ukraine", from "Norway" to "Australia". But what do these alternative relationship models really consist of and would they really be viable for the UK? Martin Westlake brings together distinguished practitioners and experts to examine the various options, real and potential, and to consider whether they would in fact offer a workable solution for the continued relationship between the EU and post-Brexit Britain.

“Pollan keeps you turning the pages . . . cleareyed and assured.” —New York Times A #1 New York Times Bestseller, New York Times Book Review 10 Best Books of 2018, and New York Times Notable Book A brilliant and brave investigation into the medical and scientific revolution taking place around psychedelic drugs--and the spellbinding story of his own life-changing psychedelic experiences When Michael Pollan set out to research how LSD and psilocybin (the active ingredient in magic mushrooms) are being used to provide relief to people suffering from difficult-to-treat conditions such as depression, addiction and anxiety, he did not intend to write what is undoubtedly his most personal book. But upon discovering how these remarkable substances are improving the lives not only of the mentally ill but also of healthy people coming to grips with the challenges of everyday life, he decided to explore the landscape of the mind in the first person as well as the third. Thus began a singular adventure into various altered states of consciousness, along with a dive deep into both the latest brain science and the thriving underground community of psychedelic therapists. Pollan sifts the historical record to separate the truth about these mysterious drugs from the myths that have surrounded them since the 1960s, when a handful of psychedelic evangelists inadvertently catalyzed a powerful backlash against what was then a promising field of research. A unique and elegant blend of science, memoir, travel writing, history, and medicine, How to Change Your Mind is a triumph of participatory journalism. By turns dazzling and edifying, it is the gripping account of a journey to an exciting and unexpected new frontier in our understanding of the mind, the self, and our place in the world. The true subject of Pollan's "mental travelogue" is not just psychedelic drugs but also the eternal puzzle of human consciousness and how, in a world that offers us both suffering and joy, we can do our best to be fully present and find meaning in our lives.
