Scope and content
File consists of Jerome Barkow's presentation DNA, Cultures, Sex and Status: How Will Old Brains Design New Bodies and New Societies, presented at Carleton University. Presentation is about Barkow's analysis of new futuristic technologies that some people think would have catastrophic effects on human society, like genetically perfect designer babies, the internet, or cloned organisms. Barkow believes that regardless of what new technologies will develop, humans will still remain humans, and the new technologies we create help to serve our old goals: competing with one another for prestige, making ourselves more appealing, validating our opinions.
