Genetic breakthroughs present us with a predicament: is it wrong to re-engineer our nature? Sandel explores the moral quandaries surrounding the quest to perfect ourselves and our children. He concludes that the pursuit of perfection is flawed for reasons beyond safety and fairness; it also suggests a failure to appreciate human achievements.
