| Sumario: | Chapter 7 of the book "Without Nature? A New Condition for Theology" is presented. It explores the difference of synthetic biology from genetic engineering to explain the lack of reference to nature in the framework of human thinking. It discusses how synthetic biologists describe their strategies as abstraction, decoupling and standardization, including the modification of the T7 bacteriophage by Leon Chan and colleagues. It examines the ethical, social and theological issues related to synthetic biology. |
