Peter Lerman’s soothing voice anchors Neal Baer’s ‘The Promise and Peril of CRISPR,’ turning dense ethical discussions into digestible narratives. Each essay, expertly chosen, delves deep into the intricacies of gene editing—both its potential to revolutionize medicine and the troubling questions it raises about identity and equality. The pacing is deliberate yet captivating, making for a compelling listen. However, some essays feel overly academic at times, which might deter casual listeners. Nonetheless, this audiobook remains an invaluable resource for anyone navigating the complex landscape of CRISPR technology.
