Summary:

The deciphering of the genome and, last but not least, the development of modern sequencing methods make many people fear that their "individuality" could be lost as a result. What this means exactly, what the individual's self-image is based on and to what extent the concern is justified is examined in this volume in the interdisciplinary discourse between human genetics and law. The contributions result from an interdisciplinary workshop of the Göttingen Institute for Human Genetics in cooperation with the Center for Medical Law in January 2012. Additional contributions from both a human genetic and a legal perspective broaden the factual basis and provide a deeper insight into the current state of affairs.
