Clone Being

"Stephen Levick has written a uniquely thought-provoking treatment of the possible psychological and social consequences of reproductive cloning. Regardless of one's stance on this current controversy, his book will be a most fascinating and informative journey." - Dr. Nancy Segal, author of Entwined Lives: Twins and What They Tell Us About Human Behavior; California State University, Fullerton; "For some time now, we have all been listening to a din of voices on cloning, each offering a different opinion on the genetics and medical aspects, ethics and religious implications. Now at last, thanks to Dr. Levick, we have a full, eloquent, knowing, and deeply humane account of human cloning and its potential for good or ill on the human psyche." - Jason W. Brown, Clinical Professor of Neurology at the NYU Medical Center; "In this brilliant and intriguing book, Levick anticipates the psychological and social consequences of human reproductive cloning, Containing a wealth of information drawn from the author's clinical experience and the psychiatric literature, this book is a welcome antidote to the hype and armchair speculation prompted by the prospect of cloning." - Ruth Macklin, Dr. Shoshanah Trachtenberg Frackman Faculty Scholar in Biomedical Ethics. Albert Einstein College of Medicine; "Clone Being is a deeply probing, predictive, and informative examination of a topic about which at present there are still mostly fears, dreams, and hopes." - J. Alexis Burland, M. D., Distinguished Life Member of the American Psychiatric Association and Training/Supervising Psychoanalyst at the Psychoanalytic Center of Philadelphia"
