Human Cloning - Religious Responses

As cloning begins to loom ahead of us as a possibility for our future, Christians have begun to ask themselves if human cloning equals playing God. Is the technology - despite being scientifically exciting - a moral option in our world? Should we clone a human just because we can? In this volume, Cole-Turner gathers twelve highly readable and nontechnical essays debating what could become the defining controversy of the late twentieth century.
