"This book offers the first comprehensive study of nineteenth-century medical societies as scientific institutions. It analyses how physicians gathered to share, discuss, evaluate, publish and even celebrate their studies, uncovering the codes of conduct that underpinned these activities. The book discusses the publishing procedures of medical journals, the tradition of oratory in academies, the networks of anatomists and the commemorations of famous physicians such as Vesalius. Its setting is nineteenth-century Belgium, a young nation state in which the freedoms of press and association were constitutionally established. The book shows how Belgian physicians participated in a civil society shaped by the values of social engagement, polite debate and a free press. Given its broad focus on science, sociability and citizenship, it will be of interest to all those seeking to understand the position of science in nineteenth-century society." --Back cover.

In 1953 werd door Watson en Crick de structuur van het DNA blootgelegd: dit gaf inzicht in de wijze waarop de erfelijke eigenschappen van een organisme worden 'gecodeerd' en bij elke celdeling doorgegeven. Omstreeks 1975 werd het mogelijk om DNA te 'manipuleren'. De stukjes DNA die een welbepaalde eigenschap tot stand brengen, en die men genen noemt, kan men nu isoleren, identificeren en reproduceren (klonen). In verband met de mens leidt dit samen met andere technieken tot de mogelijkheid om de oorsprong van een groot aantal erfelijke ziekten op te sporen. Door onderzoek van enkele cellen kan men de aanwezigheid van een erfelijke aanleg vaststellen zowel bij de volwassene, het kind, de foetus als bij het embryo. Deze kennis kan heel waardevol zijn, maar ze kan ook ongewenste tot zelfs dramatische gevolgen hebben. Dit boek geeft een inzicht in de mogelijkheden van dit genetisch onderzoek. Tegelijk worden ook de voornaamste ethische vragen gesteld die erdoor worden opgeroepen. (Bron: covertekst)
