Where this comes from

Abstract

From a scientific viewpoint, the Human Genome Project is actually not in the dock, nor even under reasonable suspicion of wrongdoing. Overwhelmingly, it will prove of benefit to humanity. However, from legal, ethical and other societal points of view, there are many problems already being considered by bioethicists, philosophers, religious experts, lawyers and others in dialogue with scientists.
