CASAS-MARTINEZ, María de la Luz. GENETIC BIOTECHNOLOGY AND INSTRUMENTALIZATION OF THE CORPOREALITY AND IN THE POSTMODERN VIEW OF MEDICINE. pers.bioét. [online]. 2011, vol.15, n.2, pp.107-112. ISSN 0123-3122.
Since the eighteen century, a new dualist trend has emerged in the health sciences towards a more mathematical vision of reality. The model is not new at all. What is new is the real possibility of applying it to human beings through biotechnology. A mathematical and molecular view of the human body makes it possible to create ideal models that can enable real action and changes; that is, truly new modifications to human corporeality. The will of the physician as a creator, not just as a palliative agent in the face of destiny, is a very difficult temptation to overcome in representing the limits of knowledge.
