It demonstrates how the genomic revolution creates new possibilities for human transformation of nature and accelerates the arrival of the era of life-on demand. Fletcher combines a summative overview of the modern progress in biology and biotechnology that has brought us to this moment and evaluates the relationship between de-extinction and provocative contemporary ideas such as rewilding, eco-modernism, and the Anthropocene. Overall, the book contends that de-extinction, as reported in the public sphere, shifts between the demands of science and spectacle and draws upon our ongoing fascination with lost worlds, Frankenstein’s monster, woolly mammoths, and dinosaurs.. | | 出版日期 | Book 2020 | | 关键词 | Science and technology studies; Public understanding of science and technology; Biotechnology; Science | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-25789-7 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-25789-7 | | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2020 |
