Articoli correlati a Human Cloning: Science, Ethics, and Public Policy
Sinossi
Ten American scholars in law, philosophy, medical ethics, and biology who met at the College of Arts and Sciences at the University of San Francisco for a cloning conference in 1998 argue why we should either pursue, regulate, or ban cloning people. Coupling science and philosophy, the book outlines what cloning is and is not, what has led to recent scientific developments, what is now possible, and the ethical dilemmas in cloning. Topics include the history of cloning in agriculture and animal science, the various procedures gathered under the term "cloning"; the philosophical arguments pro and con, and considerations that should inform making public policy about cloning research and cloning humans. While opponents argue that cloning subverts human dignity, makes a mockery of love, and poses safety hazards, proponents see a horizon of potential: production of rejectant-resistant transplant tissues, extension of techniques for artificial insemination, and prevention of genetic deformities, not to mention lower wages for a new breed of Doublemint twins.
