Perhaps you would have liked to be taller or smarter, but the chance of your birth left you no choice. You are what nature has made you, for good or ill. You may not know yourself what you could excel at, because not all of your natural abilities are known. However, future generations will probably not have to endure this kind of uncertainty and ignorance. Indeed, advances in genetics are opening up perspectives never before seen in the history of mankind. Parents will thus be able to choose not only the sex or the color of their child's eyes, but also his physical, social or intellectual capacities! However, humanity will be confronted with major ethical questions, which risk calling into question the very foundations of societies. What does genetic engineering hold in store for humanity?
