Table of ContentsReviews""This collection is an excellent contribution to the field; it fulfills and exceeds the promises of its two subsections: understanding and advancing the debate. ... It is a pleasure to read and is appropriate to use in post-graduate courses and advanced undergraduate seminars. ... this collection makes great strides in progressing the scholarship on ethics of enhancement. This is especially true in the way that the papers handle the bottlenecks of talking past each other, conflicting methodologies, and unquestioned assumptions.""--Lily Eva Frank, Ethical Theory and Moral Practice ""This book is an excellent contribution to the existing literature on the ethics of human enhancement. It deserves the attention of anyone who is eager to delve deeper into the on-going philosophical conversation about human enhancement, and it should be of special interest to so-called bioconservatives since so much of the book is grappling with that viewpoint."" --Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews Author InformationSteve Clarke, Charles Sturt University, Julian Savulescu, University of Oxford, Tony Coady, University of Melbourne, Alberto Giubilini, Charles Sturt University, Sagar Sanyal, University of Melbourne Steve Clarke is Associate Professor in the Centre for Applied Philosophy and Public Ethics, Charles Sturt University and a Senior Research Associate in the Uehiro Centre for Practical Ethics at the University of Oxford.
