The book explores the ethical implications of genetic testing for health predictions, addressing critical questions about the extent of testing and access to results. It emphasizes the importance of patient autonomy and subjective well-being in the context of presymptomatic testing. The author argues for the individual's right to decide whether to inform relatives about genetic information, while critiquing the notion that such information is communal. Additionally, the text discusses broader societal issues, including the rights of insurance companies to genetic data, advocating for a robust welfare state in light of genetic advancements.
