"An excellent general introduction to the complex subject of cloning." Dr Ian Wilmut ¿ lead scientist in the team to clone Dolly, the sheep "The coverage is broad, the commentary tempered by `the facts¿, and the writing should be readily accessible to the non-scientist." Dr Mark S. Frankel ¿ Director, Scientific Freedom, Responsibility & Law Program, American Association for the Advancement of Science "Brings together the science, ethics, policy, and potential applications of cloning in a clear and highly readable discussion." Dr Jane Maienschein ¿ author of Whose View of Life? Embryos, Cloning, and Stem Cells Should we clone extinct or endangered species? Are we justified in using stem cells from embryos to develop cures? When will we clone the first human? Ever since Dolly the sheep, questions like these have rarely been far from the public consciousness, and cloning is now poised to revolutionize medicine, healthcare, and even the food we eat. In Cloning: A Beginner¿s Guide, Aaron D. Levine explains the science and development of cloning, right up to the present-day scandals surrounding attempts to clone humans. Guiding readers around the thorny political and ethical issues raised by such progress, Levine dispels the myths perpetuated by the media and sheds new light on the pros and cons of this fascinating and controversial topic. Aaron D. Levine is currently conducting research on the impact of public policy on biomedical research at the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs, Princeton University.
