Specifically, the article attempts to attack claims that human cloning could cure infertility. As a result, this article is useful to my paper as an example of a detailed perspective against human cloning with a variety of arguments. Mcgee, Glenn. “Primer on Ethics and Human Cloning.” Actionbioscience. American Institute of Biological Sciences, Feb. 2001. Web. 11 Mar. 2015. Written by Glenn McGee, a Ph.D. from the University of Pennsylvania’s Center for Bioethics, this website article is very useful and reliable. Although it is over a decade old, it doesn’t deal with the science of cloning, but with a variety of serious ethical and psychological concerns surrounding the subject that are unlikely to change over time. Thus, it is very useful to my essay in that it presents an educated perspective on several ethical issues of human cloning.
