Overview

Addresses profound & disturbing questions, such as: Is a human embryo property, a person, or something else entirely? Should parents be able to buy genes for superior traits for their children? Not only can people clone themselves with legal impunity, but if a stranger wanted to make a clone of you -- say, from hair follicles collected at the barbershop -- you couldn't stop him. Unmasks the bizarre motives & methods of a new breed of doctors & scientists & addresses the wrenching issues we face as venture capital floods med. research, technology races ahead of legal & ethical ground rules, & ordinary people struggle to maintain both human dignity & their own emotional balance. A painful account of the medical exploitation of women & the tragic consequences.Ó
