Raising hopes for disease treatment and prevention, but also the specter of discrimination and "designer genes ", genetic testing is potentially one of the most socially explosive developments of our time. This book presents a current assessment of this rapidly evolving field, offering principles for actions and research and recommendations on key issues in genetic testing and screening. Advantages of early genetic knowledge are balanced with issues associated with such knowledge: availability of treatment, privacy and discrimination, personal decision-making, public health objectives, cost, financing and more. Among the important issues covered are quality control in genetic testing; appropriate roles for public agencies, private health practitioners, research laboratories and centers, and companies involved in testing; value-neutral education and counseling for persons considering testing; professional and public education; access to test results for insurance, employment, and other uses.
