Genetic integrity, eugenic advancement, and a strong genetic pool designed to eliminate illness and suffering have been the benchmarks of the "Genetic Movement" and the challenge of Orwell‘s Nineteen Eighty-Four. If the quality of life can in some way be either im- proved or advanced by use of the law, then this policy must be developed and pursued. No longer does the Dostoyevskian quest to give life meaning through suf- fering become an inescapable given. By and through the development and application of new scientific advances in the field of genetics (and especially genetic engi- neering), the real potential exists to prevent, to a very vii Preface viii real extent, most human suffering before it ever mani- fests itself in or through life.
