Summary: Very intelligent and deep book
Comment: I had to read this book for my pharmacy ethics class in pharmacy school. This book is very good even though at times it can be pessismistic. Some of the views I agree and so I don't agree. However, it is a very good book that is very thought-provoking.

About human cloning? Well...it is okay AS LONG as it is for the sake of saving a life. We have to remember if we get any better at human cloning we have to remember that those humans have minds which means they have a conscience which means they must be respected as human beings.

Good book.

Summary: Better than Same Old, Same Old
Comment: As a Catholic, I thought Pence too tough on Catholicism when he advocates paid organ sales against charges of commodifying life but, in the end, I (surprise!) agree that a pro-life policy must favor organ sales and (surprise!) paid surrogate mothers and sale of eggs and sperm. Book is very readable, well-written; has bite. Not everyone will agree with it, but it makes you think. Best chapters at end of book: on cloning, bioethics, and enhancing children. Lots of historical examples. Very up-to-date. My major criticism: He has no sympathy with Catholic view that human embryos have value and should count for something in national law about medical research. Otherwise, good book.
