Title: Cognitive Enhancement: Social and Public Policy Issues
Authors: H. Blank, Robert
Keywords: Cognitive Enhancement
Issue Date: 2016
Publisher: Palgrave Macmillan
Description: This book focuses on the public policy dimensions of CE and places a wide array of enhancement techniques in a social context. Since CE is likely to become more commonplace in the near future, it will progressively generate a range of policy issues. Importantly, since different interventions involve more or less risk to the user and vary in effectiveness, it is counterproductive to lump all potential new enhancement methods into one category (Coenen, 2008). The more intrusive and risky the procedure or drug, the closer the policy attention should be. There is also a need to balance the individual right to self-improvement with the numerous social costs that could arise.
