The human genome project: A reply to Rosenberg
Biology and Philosophy 17 (5) (2002)
| Abstract | In this paper we discuss the scientific value of the human genome project. To what extent is the data obtained by sequencing the entire human genome useful in the gene dicovery process? Responding to Alex Rosenberg' skepticism about the value of such data, we maintain that brute sequence data is much more useful than he suggests. | |||||||||
