Cloning, embryo research and genetic modification are three of the
most controversial issues of our time. Is it ethical to use cloning
as a means of reproduction? Are embryos people? Is there a
difference between removing genetic disease and creating « designer
babies? This book will attempt to show that these and other
problems are ultimately resolvable, given careful and unbiased
application of established ethical principles, many of which
underlie common morality. These principles, when applied to the
problems of the new genetic technologies, form the basis of a new
genetic morality. This book applies established principles of
biomedical ethics to the new genetic technologies and examines the
ethical implications of reproductive and therapeutic cloning,
genetic modification and stem cell research from a deontological
and a rule-utilitarian perspective. Finally, it seeks to establish
what, if anything, is wrong with each of these practices, and why.
