This
site is dedicated to work surrounding the publication of the Routledge
(2004) book Genetically Modified Athletes: Biomedical Ethics,
Gene Doping, and Sport, by Dr. Andy
Miah. The site has been created to provide a greater awareness of
the issues surrounding the use of genetic technologies in sport and to
develop an awareness for the literature that considers this case. It will
be ongoing and will maintain a webpresence for the foreseeable future.
You might also be interested in the Forum
for the Analysis of Sport Technology, the Bioethics
and Sport Blog, and Posthumanisms.
