"the 50-page report serves as a convenient and accessible starting point for both public and classroom discussions, such as in bioethics seminars. Some of the questions addressed include:
- What is human enhancement?
- Does human enhancement raise issues of fairness, access, and equity?
- What kind of societal disruptions might arise from human enhancement?
- If individuals are enhanced differently, will communication be more difficult or impossible?
- Will we need to rethink the notion of a “good life”?
- Should children be enhanced?
- What are the policy implications of human enhancement? "
