Introduction: Regenerative Medicine at the Heart of the Culture Wars

IP, King-Tak

Pages: 3 –10

[Regenerative medicine is rich with Promethean promises. The use of human embryonic stem cells in research is justified by its advocates in terms of promises to cure a wide range of diseases and disabilities, from Alzheimer’s and Parkinsonism to the results of heart attacks and spinal cord...

Engelhardt, H. Tristram

Pages: 13 –25

[This paper provides a geography ofmoral andmetaphysical controversy. It offers a map of cardinal cultural conflicts, an overview of the colliding understandings of reality that shape the bioethical debates nesting regenerative medicine, in particular those associated with interferences in early...

Genetic Manipulation and the Resurrection Body

Song, Robert

Pages: 27 –45

[In a recent article, Gerald McKenny suggests that it is time for religious traditions to put behind them the “tired debate” about whether to support gene therapy (McKenny, 2002). They have, he argues, no good reason for rejecting germ-line gene therapy or genetic enhancements in principle, and...

Secular Humanist Bioethics and Regenerative Medicine

Lo, Ping-Cheung

Pages: 47 –62

[As Daniel Callahan perceptively observed some 20 years ago, issues and dilemmas in bioethics might be new as a result of remarkable advances in biomedical science, but the moral questions they raise are “among the oldest that human beings have asked themselves” (Callahan, 2004, p. 278)....

Radical Disagreements of Chinese Views on Fetal Life and Implications for Bioethics1

Jing-Bao, Nie

Pages: 63 –73

Using and Misusing Embryos: The Ethical Debates

Almond, Brenda

Pages: 77 –92

Trading Lives or Changing Human Nature: The Strange Dilemma of Embryo-Based Regenerative Medicine

Mcgee, Glenn

Pages: 93 –106

Therapeutic Cloning, Respect for Human Embryo, and Symbolic Value

Chan, Jonathan

Pages: 107 –116

[The field of regenerative medicine is fraught with moral controversy. This paper explores only one cluster of the disputes it provokes: the ethics of therapeutic cloning in the context of human embryonic stem (ES) cells research, that is, the ethics of the application of the technology of...

Medical Biotechnologies: Are There Effective Ethical Arguments for Policy Making?

Fan, Ruiping; Yu, Erika

Pages: 119 –134

[The intensity of moral controversy over the development of groundbreaking medical biotechnologies can hardly be overstated.1 Studies conducted by scientists in genetics, cloning, and stem-cell research have often become the news headlines that are not only exciting but also disquieting. On the...

Extending Human Life: To What End?

Waters, Brent

Pages: 135 –153

[The burgeoning field of regenerative medicine is poised to transform healthcare. Advances in genetics, stem-cell research, and cloning hint that we may be on the brink of a golden age of medical care, culminating in greatly extended longevity.
