Ethics and Neurosciences (1995)
This report shows the extensive scope of what are referred to today as the neurosciences. While the neurosciences do bring hope, notably in the area of mental health, they are also a particularly dangerous terrain for genetic manipulation and for the use of pharmacology and computer science for behavioural ends. The purpose of this report is to examine in a clear-sighted way and without complacency, the hopes and risks involved and to issue a few warnings of an ethical nature.
