Description:
This book assesses the scientific value and merit of research on human genetic differences -- including a collection of DNA samples that represent the whole of human genetic diversity -- and the ethical, organizational, and policy issues surrounding such research. Evaluating Human Genetic Diversity discusses the potential uses of such a collection, such as providing insight into human evolution and origins and serving as a springboard for important medical research. It also addresses issues of confidentiality and individual privacy for participants in genetic diversity research studies.
