Description:
What is cloning and why do so many people find it disturbing? Why has "Dolly" the sheep -- the first cloning-created animal -- provoked such a wave of media attention and debate? In Clones, Genes, and Immortality, John Harris, an internationally renown figure in the field of bioethics, looks at the issues surrounding the biological revolution which is enabling scientists to contemplate the ability to control human evolution. From designer babies to genetic screening by employers, his book provides a stimulating introduction to the present concerns about the rapid pace of developments in biotechnology.
