    Abstract

    This little book is very impressive and likely to leave one with a lasting - not to say indelible - impression. It is of particular interest to bioethicists, but its appeal is much broader than that, as it contributes to formulate aspects of the question of identity which might only have been dimly appercieved by previous generations. It explores the importance of biological descent for our image and understanding of ourselves.
