Summary

The belief in the harmony of Nature which predominated in the 18th century has progressively been undermined by the progress made in biology. Today the debates concerning biotechnology and the management of the planet require scientists and citizens to share both the certainties and uncertainties in the fields of genetics, ecology or ethology.
