While scientists are able to splice and insert genetic material across different species, no one can truly predict the outcome. The book gives detail about how scientist would stimulate what would happen if there creation were released into the world. It mentions how they tested their creation and in the real world it had a horrible outcome. In the book it also talks about how “Super” mice were created when the AIDS virus was inserted in the mouse. The book then goes to talk about how if the mice were to escape and mate with other mice, their viruses could cause a virulent strain of the virus. Even though they did take measure to secure the mice, I feel we would be faced with a horrible situation for the surround animals that the mice could possible come in contact with..

Where different species can now be genetically modified together. I don’t think it is in the best interest for humans to be combined with any another species. I also feel, as creating a “perfect” human is the best of society. Just as the book mention that last time the “perfect” human was sought after it was the Aryan race; blonde hair, blue eyes.
