Description: The technical manipulation of living matter from humans, animals and plants is both a scientific and a social undertaking. This course is designed for humanities and science students who want to know more about how biotechnology came into existence, and the questions, controversies and changes which come with the ability to engineer living things. A series of case studies of contemporary events in cloning, patenting, genetically modified organisms, and stem cell research will be set in the context of the 20th century history of biotechnology.
