Story
Already technology enables parents to select some genetic traits for their children, and soon it will be possible to begin to shape ourselves as a species. Countering loud cries of alarm, bioethics expert Ronald Green explains why our fears about genetic engineering are overblown and how we can move forward responsibly to create a better future.

Story
Ein Blick durch das Schlüsselloch der Forschungslabore und Hightech-Firmen: Woran sie arbeiten, was sie planen, was jetzt schon möglich ist. Spitzenforscher sind sich einig: Auch mit Mitte 90 noch fit zu sein, kann Standard werden. Und 120 Jahre Leben wird für viele Menschen erreichbar – schon für die jetzt geborenen Generationen. Doch was müssen wir tun, um nicht nur länger zu leben, sondern auch länger gesund zu bleiben? Thomas Schulz, langjähriger SPIEGEL-Korrespondent im Silicon Valley, hat mit Konzernchefs und Spitzenforscherinnen, AI-Koryphäen und Medizinerinnen gesprochen.

This audiobook uncovers the biggest scientific fraud of our age. It tells the fascinating and frequently astounding story of how the massive enterprise to restructure the genetic core of the world's food supply came into being, how it advanced by consistently violating the protocols of science, and how for more than three decades, hundreds of eminent biologists and esteemed institutions have systematically contorted the truth in order to conceal the unique risks of its products - and get them onto our dinner plates.

In 2010, scientists led by J. Craig Venter became the first to successfully create "synthetic life" - putting humankind at the threshold of the most important and exciting phase of biological research, one that will enable us to actually write the genetic code for designing new species to help us adapt and evolve for long-term survival. The science of synthetic genomics will have a profound impact on human existence, including chemical and energy generation, health, clean water and food production, environmental control, and possibly even our evolution.

The introduction of new medicines has dramatically improved the quantity and quality of individual and public health, while contributing trillions of dollars to the global economy. In spite of these past successes - and indeed because of them - our ability to deliver new medicines may be quickly coming to an end. Moving from the 20th century to the present, A Prescription for Change reveals how changing business strategies combined with scientific hubris have altered the way new medicines are discovered, with dire implications for both health and the economy.
