Since Dolly the sheep was born, controversy has swirled around the
technology of cloning. We recoil at the prospect of human copies,
manufactured men and women, nefarious impersonators and
resurrections of the dead. Such reactions have serious legal
consequences: lawmakers have banned stem cell research along with
the cloning of babies. But what if our minds have been playing
tricks on us? What if everything we thought we knew about human
cloning is rooted in intuition rather than fact? Human Cloning:
Four Fallacies and Their Legal Consequences is a rollicking ride
through science, psychology, and the law. Drawing on sources
ranging from science fiction films to the Congressional Record,
this book unmasks the role that psychological essentialism has
played in bringing about cloning bans. It explains how hidden
intuitions have caused conservatives and liberals to act contrary
to their own most cherished ideals and values.
