Thousands Of Years Years Ago
891 words
Beginning about 12, 000 years ago, the human
population began a trend that completely changed
the way we, as a race, evolved. For the first time
in history, humans pushed beyond the restraints of
traditional hunting and gathering, into
domestication and farming. It was a change that

evolutionary path at the time. Along the path to
this point, we have been constantly changing and
finding new ways to produ...

Ethics In Frankenstein And Brave New World

Ethics in "Frankenstein" and "Brave New World" For
most of human history, the ethical considerations
of scientific inquiry would have been a moot
point. Outside of the Bible and mythology, there
was no thought of creating life from inert matter
because scientists would not have felt it was
possible to do so. In the nineteenth and twentieth
centuries, however, in the wake of landmark
discoveries in the fields of chemistry, biology,
and genetics, the possibility of scientific
tampering with the hu...
