Why would you want to prevent "designer babies, human clones, a genetic aristocracy?"
Try this experiment: Stand just beside a Ponderosa all-you-can-eat buffet, and take a look at the people that walk in the front door.
Right there you have probably one of the most convincing arguments possible indicating the importance and the value of modern eugenics. Humanity has a heck of a lot of room for improvement.
Don't let this book's kind of backwards knee-jerk reaction stop us from living up to our own potential.
