As DNA forensic profiling and databasing become established as key
technologies in the toolbox of the forensic sciences, their
expanding use raises important issues that promise to touch
everyone's lives. In an authoritative global investigation of a
diverse range of countries, including those at the forefront of
these technologies' development and use, this book identifies and
provides critical reflection upon the many issues of privacy;
distributive justice; DNA information system ownership;
biosurveillance; function creep; the reliability of collection,
storage and analysis of DNA profiles; the possibility of
transferring medical DNA information to forensics databases; and
democratic involvement and transparency in governance, an emergent
key theme. This book is timely and significant in providing the
essential background and discussion of the ethical, legal and
societal dimensions for academics, practitioners, public interest
and criminal justice organisations, and students of the life
sciences, law, politics, and sociology.
