Resumen: "Daedalus; or, Science and the Future" by J. B. S. Haldane is a lecture published in 1924. Drawing on Greek mythology, Haldane explores the revolutionary and often controversial nature of scientific progress, particularly in biology. He envisions a future where humans control their own evolution through directed mutation and artificial reproduction, while warning that scientific advancement without ethical progress may bring grief rather than human benefit. His provocative ideas influenced Aldous Huxley's "Brave New World." (This is an automatically generated summary.)
