This insightful compilation delves into the moral quandaries surrounding our responsibilities toward future generations, particularly in the context of genetics and bioethics. Written by scholars Melinda A. Roberts and David T. Wasserman, the essays challenge readers to consider the implications of their choices on individuals who have yet to exist. The authors dissect the nonidentity problem, grappling with the complexities of how actions today can affect the well-being and existence of people tomorrow.

Through a series of thought-provoking contributions, the collection encourages an examination of ethical frameworks relevant to genetic interventions and the framework of responsibility. By blending philosophical inquiry with real-world dilemmas, it serves as a guide for understanding the far-reaching consequences of contemporary decisions, ultimately prompting deeper reflection on the legacy we leave behind.
