from Part IV - Consumer Genetics and Identity
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 27 August 2021
Part IV, Consumer Genetics and Identity, focuses on the personal impact that consumer genetic technologies can have. The reader is asked to consider how genetic information forces individuals to reevaluate their family histories and patients to consider their medical futures. At the same time, Part IV also reminds the reader that identity goes beyond an individual, that we are defined by other characteristics such as race. Each chapter also considers the role that genetic testing can play in supporting or undermining self-determination.
