If you could prevent your child, or yourself, from becoming disabled, would you? � If you could lengthen not merely your life span, but your health span, should you? � For many bioethicists, seeking to enhance our capacities imperils our humanity. But that quest to improve ourselves drives both the technological advancements which improve our health, and our lives, and the moral advancements which alone testify to any intelligible idea of human dignity. Emerging biotechnologies offer tantalizing potential to enhance us b6 s our genes, our bodies, our minds, our health, our happiness. Bellantoni argues that we should embrace that potential, not only for ourselves, but for those who will follow us. We should, that is, make our lives - and ourselves b6 s better than they are, materially and morally, by whatever means we have.
