The article presents the authors views on the biotechnology revolution. Cloning technology is used to create human embryos for stem-cell research whose concerns emanate from commitments to social justice. The article reveals that once ability to use any cell as an egg is acquired, an obstacle is removed for achieving complete control over human reproduction. Admittedly, complete control over the production of reproduction will require a womb for pregnancy that would be just another biochemical matter for extraction and fractionation.
