Editor Jacqueline Langwith compiled a series of compelling essays in a for-or-against sequence that debate the controversies relating to stem cells. Across four chapters, readers will evaluate the therapeutic potential of stem cell treatments, whether it is moral, what kind of embryos should be used for embryonic research, and what role the government should play. Essay sources include Christian Life Resources, Jean Peduzzi Nelson, Arthur L. Caplan, Pasquale Patrizio, and Laura Bothwell.
