Description

Explore the transition of human cloning from science fiction to scientific practice with this Routledge publication. This book examines how cloning has evolved into both an imaginary practice and a scientific fact, offering a deep look into the cultural production of cloning technologies. Readers will gain insights into the major controversies surrounding therapeutic cloning for stem cell research and reproductive cloning. By analyzing how these practices and representations function in a global arena, the text provides a clear view of how scientific concepts move from fiction into real-world application. Through various case studies, the book addresses important topics such as the image of the scientist, the role of scientific expertise and institutions, and the governance of science. It also looks at the representation of women's bodies as subjects within this field. This work is an essential resource for those studying the intersection of genetics, media, and society.
