The Screen Guide

The new science of genetic engineering puts man at the dawn of determining his own biological future. Dr. Reanney looks at how we are likely to cope with these radical developments. Test tube babies and cloning techniques have such long-term implications that society may not be able to stand the psychological shock, while at the same time other advances are producing 'thinking' machines. Dr. Reanney questions man's ultimate ability to control these developments.
