How to Grow a Human

Adventures in Who We Are and How We Are Made

Philip Ball
Two neuroscientists at UCL took a sample of flesh from author Philip Ball’s arm and used it to cultivate a miniature brain, a blob of neurons. Inspired by this strange experience, Ball explores the world of cell growth and manipulation, and new technologies that raise the possibility of designer babies, gene-editing and cloning, considering both the ethical viewpoint and the philosophical explanation of what makes a person.
