Work Description
Unraveling the mystery of stem cells, Wesley J. Smith illuminates what’s on the line in the controversy over using them for research. He describes the emerging science of human cloning—the most radical technology in history—and shows how it moves forward inexorably against the moral consensus of the world. But at the core of this highly readable and carefully researched book is a report on the gargantuan “Big Biotech” industry and its supporters in the universities and the science and bioethics establishments.
