And it's poised to completely upend the way we think about science.Author Yolanda Ridge tackles this topic in a friendly and accessible tone, with two introductory chapters covering the basics of DNA and genetic modification before taking readers through the ways that this ground-breaking science could affect them by potentially:But all of these possible advancements come with risks, the biggest being that the consequences are unknown. If it sounds complicated, it is--but it's also one of the most powerful ways we can shape the future.
"Cutting Questions" Chapters end with "Stop, Go, Yield" sections encouraging readers to consider the pros and cons of using CRISPR.
