The history of cloning experiments dates back more than a century, but advances in technology in recent decades have multiplied the potential applications of cloning-and expanded the controversies surrounding these possibilities. Cloning: A Reference Handbook provides an accessible description of the development of plant and animal cloning from the early stages of human civilization to the present day and coherently covers the science and technology involved. It reviews the essential controversies that have arisen about cloning-particularly applications involving human DNA-as researchers have

Ce corps est-il à moi ? C'est en tous cas la certitude que nous avons incorporée depuis les années 60. Bien qu'elle constitue l'un des acquis de la laïcité et des luttes sociales, cette certitude peut être interrogée d'un point de vue laïque, à travers les nouvelles pratiques corporelles auxquelles nous croyons nous adonner en toute liberté. Quelles sont, dans l'esprit du sujet individuel, les parts respectives de l'illusion et de l'invention dans cette religion du corps libéré ? Quel est l'impensé de cette pensée du corps qui semble désormais la nôtre ? Tel est l'objet central de ce livre, dans lequel le regard philosophique s'attache à ce qui relie des pratiques apparemment aussi déviantes que le SM ou le tatouage aux prescriptions du droit, de l'éthique et de la politique. Réflexion abstraite ? Rien n'est moins sûr. Car la problématique ici ouverte enveloppe aussi bien les délits que le clonage, la greffe d'organes, l'euthanasie ou les soins palliatifs adressent à la pensée critique.

Many people think human reproductive cloning should be a crime. In America some states have already outlawed cloning and Congress is working to enact a national ban. Meanwhile, scientific research continues, both in America and abroad and soon reproductive cloning may become possible. If that happens, cloning cannot be stopped. Infertile couples and others will choose to have babies through cloning, even if they have to break the law. This book explains that the most common objections to cloning are false or exaggerated. The objections reflect and inspire unjustified stereotypes about human clones and anti-cloning laws reinforce these stereotypes and stigmatize human clones as subhuman and unworthy of existence. This injures not only human clones, but also the egalitarianism upon which our society is based. Applying the same reasoning used to invalidate racial segregation, this book argues that anti-cloning laws violate the equal protection guarantee and are unconstitutional.

La technique du clonage a récemment ouvert deux nouvelles voies : celle du clonage reproductif aboutissant à la création d individus, et celle du clonage dit « thérapeutique » permettant le développement de lignées de cellules souches, capables de se différencier en cellules les constitutives de différents tissus de l organisme. Les perspectives thérapeutiques ouvertes par l obtention de cellules souches sont considérables, mais cette technique, qui utilise en grand nombre des embryons humains, fait l objet d importantes controverses. Scientifiques, philosophes, juristes, journalistes expliquent ici les questions éthiques liées aux différentes techniques de clonage. Glossaire et rappel des concepts scientifiques de base accompagnent cette étude.
