It's not the meek who will inherit

Article Abstract:

Individuals' desire to reproduce themselves in their own image and to have healthy, happy and successful children could result in humanity becoming horrifically polarised. Individuals will seize control of the new reprogenetic technologies and use some of them to achieve otherwise unattainable goals. The effects of the accumulation of genetic enhancements from one generation to the next are difficult to predict, but could lead to the evolution of two entirely separate species. Humans would be divided into the genetically enhanced who carry synthetic genes, and the others, who do not.

Magic way to true self

Article Abstract:

Issues relating to the possible future path for humanity following the mapping of the human genome, the commencement of the cloning of animals and the celebration of the 50th anniversary of the double helix are examined. It is argued that while those who express concerns about where genetic manipulation may take humanity have valid points, the film "The Wizard of Oz", in which the characters engage on a quest to better themselves, may be a better guide to where the future will take us.

Could microchips replace our men and machine guns on the next front line?

Article Abstract:

An analysis of the possible future of battlefield technology in the light of a recent conference held by Hull University's Centre for Security Studies which considered the idea that, in the future, nations will wage wars with IT rather than traditional weapons. Few were one over by the idea, with one officer noting that it is not systems that kill, it is men and women that do, and that it is not possible to frighten an enemy into submission through sophisticated analysis alone.
