Everyone wants the clone created. The scientist, to advance her theories. The Russian gangster, for supposedly he is the one being cloned. The Russian gangster’s sons, for they know the real reason. The scientist’s husband, for he wants her to be happy. But what is she cloning, really? They gave her the cells, the lab, an assistant, a host, and money enough to not ask questions. What are they hiding? From the depths of South Africa to the cold of Russia, the clone will pull you in every direction. And when you think you have it figured out, something takes a turn. Protect yourself, for this story may even be true. The Clone, by Johan Thompson. Only ask questions for which you want answers.

Colony of Clones, the second book in an evocative sci-fi trilogy, explores the perilous politics bubbling up in an experimental community of human clones. Rex and Dago, cloned from iconic historical figures, grapple for control over their fledgling settlement isolated from the outside world. Brilliant outcast Ator, cloned from Galileo, challenges the colony’s questionable doctrine before being banished by its authoritarian leader. The clones, copied from the bone shards of ‘genetically superior’ personages, grow up ingrained with a heightened sense of superiority, entitlement and independence. But as clones based on long-dead people struggle to find identity and purpose, fissures split wide open and they find themselves navigating a world that is anything but certain. When visitor Jake is brought to the secretive colony by the increasingly paranoid Dago, he bears uneasy witness to the psychological distress catalysed by experimental human cloning devoid of ethics. Dago’s own sister Mary grapples to break free from the trauma of being a clone caught out of time. Probing the devastating ramifications of playing god in a lab, Colony of Clones examines human cloning through an absorbing character-driven narrative full of intrigue, thought experiments, and moral complexity.

After the U.S. government figures out how to clone humans, they test and move everyone into living communities. People with a specific gene are kidnapped and taken to cloning facilities to be cloned. In doing this, the government ticks off three special individuals who vow to stop this age of cloning. Trust will be tested and commands will be given. Can these three truly save humanity from the age of cloning? If they can, how will they do it? Will the government be able to stop them, or is it too late to continue the age of cloning?

Jordan Finch's dad is a top scientist in the field of human cloning. But Jordan isn't sure about his dad's crusade to be the first to clone a human being-he's seen what cloning does to monkeys: the deformities, the early deaths...And he becomes even less sure after meeting the enigmatic Maynard. Maynard befriends Jordan in the hope of getting to Jordan's father. He has to stop Patrick Finch before he takes the final step and seals humankind's fate-a bleak future in which natural reproduction no longer exists...

Animal cloning has developed quickly since the birth of Dolly the sheep. Yet many of the first questions to be raised still need to be answered. What do Dolly and her fellow mouse, cow, pig, goat and monkey clones mean for science? And for society? Why do so many people respond so fearfully to cloning? What are the ethical issues raised by cloning animals, and in the future, humans? How are the makers of public policy coping with the stunning fact that an entire animal can be reconstructed from a single adult cell? And that humans might well be next? The Cloning Source Book addresses all of these questions in a way that is unique in the cloning literature, by grounding what is effectively an interdisciplinary conversation in solid science. In the first section of the book, the key scientists responsible for the early and crucial developments in cloning speak to us directly, and other scientists evaluate and comment on these developments. The second section explores the context of cloning and includes sociological, mythological, and historical perspectives on science, ethics, and policy. The authors also examine the media's treatment of the Dolly story and its aftermath, both in the United States and in Britain. The third section, on ethics, contains a broad range of papers written by some of the major commentators in the field. The fourth section addresses legal and policy issues. It features individual and collective contributions by those who have actually shaped public policy on reproductive cloning, therapeutic cloning, and similarly contentious bioethical issues in the United States, Britain, and the European Union. Animal cloning continues for agricultural and medicinal purposes, the latter in combination with transgenics. Human cloning for therapeutic purposes has recently been made legal in Britain. The goal is to produce an early embryo and then derive stem cells that are immunologically matched to the donor. Two human reproductive cloning projects have been announced, and there are almost certainly others about which we know nothing. Sooner or later a cloned human will be born. Many lessons can be learned from the cloning experience. Most importantly, there needs to be a public conversation about the permissible uses of new and morally murky technologies. Scientists, journalists, ethicists and policy makers all have roles to play, but cutting-edge science is everybody's business. The Cloning Sourcebook provides the tools required for us to participate in shaping our own futures.

With modern technology and brilliant scientific minds, the idea of cloning a human being is now a reality. If sheep and monkeys can be cloned, what is stopping scientists from cloning humans? If your answer to this question would be morals, think again. Everyone wants to get recognized for their accomplishments, if not for the simple reason of satisfying our own egos. Many potential organ recipients wait patiently for that lifesaving organ. But because of the long line of potential recipients, small number of donors and large price tags associated with the organ transplant, an overwhelming number of these potential recipients die. The people who are lucky enough to receive organ transplants are still at risk of their body rejecting this foreign organ. However, if the organ is cloned and the defective gene pinpointed and replaced with a healthy gene through genetic engineering, thereby creating a perfectly healthy organ within a reasonable time frame, there would be no chance of the body rejecting this organ. Cloning is a reality, and the possibilities are endless, both good and bad. The expression "the evil twin" comes to life when the lives of two people are created from one. Imagine having an identical twin who looks exactly like you, but you have no idea that she even exists. Modern technology, genetic engineering and a dysfunctional environment lure one of these individuals to kill. Out of jealousy, the clone seeks revenge on her cell donor. The cell donor, Stevie, was born in 1966, in Akron, Ohio. Prior to her birth, her family experienced a tragedy with the loss of their son, at age six. The young boy gave up his life to a liver disease called Caroli Disease, which is an enlarged liver due to cysts and dilatation of the bile ducts which secrete alkaline fluid which aids in the absorption of fats in the liver. By the age of two, Stevie started to experience high fevers, stomach pains and vomiting, which was originally diagnosed as a common flu. When the symptoms persisted, she, too, was diagnosed with Caroli Disease. The diseased gene was suspected to be passed down from both her mother and her father. Stevie's mother, Rachael, attended night school at Medley University to get her Bachelor of Science in Nursing. It was at the University where Rachael met Dr. Bradley Terrance. Dr. Terrance was head of the Biomedical Science Department. It was after the loss of Stevie's brother and directly after Stevie's diagnosis that Rachael was first introduced to the idea of cloning through Dr. Terrance. Dr. Terrance proved to Rachael that he had successfully cloned a chimpanzee named Martha using cells from an embryo. He explained to her, that with genetic engineering, he would be able to locate and eliminate the defective gene that caused Caroli Disease and inject, in its place, a healthy gene, therefore, creating a perfectly normal, healthy liver. Rachael agreed to let Dr. Terrance clone her last remaining child. Rather than cloning just the liver, Dr. Terrance convinced her that it would be more practical to clone the entire body for spare parts in the event that another organ would malfunction during the transplantation process. Less than a year later, the liver transplant was performed, and the baby liver donor was left to expire. At least this was what Dr. Terrance led Rachael to believe. The baby liver donor was saved by Dr. Terrance by replacing her empty liver cavity with a primate liver. Dr. Terrance raised the clone in his lab at the University. He named her Stephanie. The wife of Dr. Terrance was the only person who knew of Stephanie's existence. Because Dr. Terrance's time was limited and split between Stephanie and his wife, there was a r

The thrilling sequel to Cloning Miranda and The Second Clone. When Miranda is accused of vandalism on school property, she's confident she can clear her name - until she's shown the security tapes. Even she can't tell that the girl on the tapes isn't her, or her cloned "twin" sister Ariel. Miranda must fight to clear her name or face being expelled, and possibly charged by the police. But one way or another, she knows she can't tell the truth to the authorities, or share her suspicions about the real culprit. Meanwhile, Dr. Mullen, her creator, has called a press conference to announce that he is the first scientist ever to create a living human clone. Could the girl on the security tape be yet another Mullen-made Miranda clone? Or could it be Eve, the dying third clone that Mullen kidnapped? No matter what, it looks like Miranda and Ariel are about to face the biggest challenge of their lives.

In the early 21st century, Rowan is fighting a secret war against alien pirates bent on subjugating all of mankind. At least, that's what she thinks. In reality, it's a thousand years later, Earth has long been part of an interstellar and interspecies republic, and she's a character on Angel Black, an e-entertainment that allows viewers a complete sensory experience through her perspective. Who needs actors when you can clone famous performers and splice in some alien DNA? Since studio clones have no rights, their lives and experiences can be tailor-made for the program. It's just too bad the clones don't know that. Ryan Chandler was a decorated war hero until he was cloned to save his life. His career options died with his original body and the best job he can get is a technician on Angel Black. He's planning to escape to a newly colonized system when Rowan is scheduled to be killed off. With help from unexpected allies, Ryan stages Rowan's rescue, but getting her off the set is only the beginning. To succeed, they must evade a manhunt supported by the state that fears Rowan's liberation might be the triggering event of a clone rights movement that could cost the establishment billions and shake the foundations of human society. Can two clones find their freedom in a society that treats them as second-class citizens?
