The genesis machine : our quest to rewrite life in the age of synthetic biology / by Webb, Amy,1974-author.(CARDINAL)401407; Hessel, Andrew,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index.Part One : Origin -- Saying No to Bad Genes : The Birth of the Genesis Machine -- A Race to the Starting Line -- The Bricks of Life -- God, a Church, and a (Mostly) Woolly Mammoth -- Part Two : The Bioeconomy -- The Biological Age -- Nine Risks -- The Story of Golden Rice -- Part Three: Futures -- Exploring the Recently Plausible -- Scenario One : Creating Your Child with Wellspring -- Scenario Two : What Happened When We Canceled Aging -- Scenario Three : Akira Gold's "Where to Eat" -- Scenario Four : The Underground -- Scenario Five : The Memo -- Part Four : The Way Forward -- A New Beginning -- Epilogue"Synthetic biology is the promising and controversial technology platform that combines biology and artificial intelligence, opening up the potential to program biological systems much as we program computers. Synthetic biology enables us not just to readand edit DNA - the technique of CRISPR - but also write it. Rather than life being "a beautiful game of chance", synthetic biology creates the potential to control our genetic destiny, to say "no" to bad genes and build a veritable genetic app store fordownloading and adding new capabilities into any cell, microbe, plant, or animal. Amy Webb and Andrew Hessel's riveting stories include: the work of scientists to develop plants that can be grown in sprawling indoor farms capable of feeding millions witha fraction of the usual resources required; a synthetic, self-regulating insulin that doesn't require injections or a pump; life-altering regenerative, personalized medicine; and novel, durable solutions to climate change. There is also whimsy, such as the dream of some geneticists to "unextinct" the wooly mammoth. By examining both the science and the ethical, moral, and religious issues surrounding synthetic biology, Webb and Hessel provide the background for preventing its misuse by some to re-engineertheir bodies and that of their children, further increasing the disturbing division and polarization of societies into the haves (the enhanced) and the have nots. They provide the background for making wise decisions about issues such as: whether to program novel viruses to fight diseases, what genetic privacy will look like, who will "own" living organisms, how companies should earn revenue from engineered cells, and how to contain a synthetic organism in a lab. Whether we approve or disapprove of synthetic biology, it is coming. Now, we need to understand its promise and peril. Webb and Hessel help us understand the science as well as the political and societal issues involved"--
