It is difficult to be objective in your review if you do not totally agree with the author and this review managed to do just that. Stayed neutral and objective. Well done

Based on the sampling, I realize that this book is thought-provoking, and contains some invaluable information. Persons interested in such areas of science should find it educational. Thanks for your insightful review.

Sounds like a lot of knowledge. But I didn't understand the reference to Bible and religion.

The New Eugeninics by Conrad B. Quintyn
It's an early book indeed hence for someone who's interested in learning more about biotechnology. My interest lies more in how genes and cloning works.

All in all I do not like the book but I would recommend it to my medical friends.
All in all thanks for sharing with me Mr Quintyn

thank you for letting us know what we will find when we get into this book, it is good to know that you have a well-justified approach to eugenics.

The fact that the author takes the time to explain different situations is very important and with real arguments is important in subjects that are still so delicate to deal with.

Thanks for clarifying that although it is for all audiences, it is good to have previous notions on the subject.

I think it is good that a book has appeared on the market that deals with the issue of the abuse of genetics in a concrete and factual way.

The idea of cloning seems to be interesting.

This book seems like it is filled with scientific theories. I'll have to give it my full concentration. Thanks for the review!

I must confess that the topic discussed by the author does not attract my attention. However, I must agree from the review that the author has done a great job. Congratulations on being the BOTD!

The part where the reviewer said that there's hardly anything dislikeable about the book, was the part which made me feel like I should definitely read it. Having a science background, I am interested in eugenics and would love to read this book

A novel that reveals to you the secrets of birth control, with all its topics and what about birth control, and that it is a technology available to the wealthy. Without infringing on the existence of the Creator and that he is the Creator. Scientific and personal. It is the author's opinion that it should be available to everyone without exception. Not just for the rich. Congrats on Botd

The book sounds informative and very interesting about cloning, in vitro fertilization, genome editing, self-controlled reproduction, transhumanism but non-fiction is not my cup of tea besides I don't have that kind of brain to understand everything. Still I'm sure the book will find its reader. Congratulations on becoming BOTD!

This sounds like a truly interesting book. I have very little knowledge about eugenics, but I think I would have a blast of reading this book. I did not expect the author to take a cautionary approach; I thought this book would praise eugenics. The fact that Quintyn seems to have gone the opposite way is really intriguing.
This has definitely been added to my TBR list.
Thank you for the wonderful and comprehensive review.
