Designer Babies Picture a young couple in a waiting room looking through a catalogue together. This catalogue is a little different from what you might expect. In this catalogue‚ specific traits for babies are being sold to couples to help them create the "perfect baby." This may seem like a bizarre scenario‚ but it may not be too far off in the future. Designing babies using genetic enhancement is an issue that is gaining more and more attention in the news. This controversial issue‚ once thought

For me‚ James Watson at first was a bit weird guy because of the way he stared and looked at people around him. He is a mysterious guy and a bit naughty to the ladies he has seen. As one of the character said‚ he is the “boy-wonderer”. He is also a very eager to know the research and very observant. Francis Crick: He does the same research with Watson‚ they are both teammates.

In 1920 John .B. Watson paired up with his graduate student Rosalie Rayner who he later married to carry out an experiment to prove that emotional responses could be conditioned or learned. He believed that environmental factors influence behaviour despite the biological make up of human beings. Watson and Rayner used an 11 month old baby Albert in the now famously known “Little Albert” study. Albert was a healthy and stable baby at the time of the experiment. When Albert was 9 months old‚ he

Broadus Watson revolutionised psychology and established behaviourism. He states the ‘consciousness’ could not be seen or meaningfully defined and therefore should not be studied. He claimed behaviour could be shaped and manipulated‚ in 1930‚ he famously said‚ ‘Give me a dozen healthy infants…and I’ll guarantee to take any one at random and train him to become…a doctor‚ lawyer‚ artist‚ merchant-chief and yes‚ even beggar man and thief.’ After conducting research on animal behaviour‚ Watson stated
