There are many arguments for and against cloning, and many of them are discuscd in this chapter. In addition to the two camps of cloning advocates and opponents. there is also a group of people who believe more research is needed before a decision can be reached on whether cloning should or should not he allowcd.This third group occupies a middle ground between those who are for cloning (and therefore believe research should Continue) and those who are against it (and therefore believe furthcr research should be banned).
