1.5. METHODOLOGY
The
methods employed in this investigation are exposition and critical
analysis. The expository method is used to lay bare the dangers of human
cloning, recognize the dangers in the exercise and also draw some
implications. On the other hand, the analytic method is employed to
explain certain terms in the study. Some of the human cloning arguments
are analytically discussed. The relevant information and statistical
data for effective discussion of our topic are collected from the
library and the Internet.
1.6. THE DIVISON OF WORK
The work is
divided into chapters, and subsections for easy explication. In all,
there are five chapters. Chapter one deals with the general
introduction; setting the work forth in a methodological framework. In
chapter two, the explication of the terms was made. I tried to explain
the meaning and the purpose of ethics as the guide to scientific and
biotechnological practices in any experimentation that involve human
being. Still, the biological and philosophical conceptions of personhood
and humanhood are explored so as to furnish us with the true status of
the human embryo.
Chapter three is the backbone of the work. It deals
with the meaning and historical background of cloning. Also, the
reasons, methods and the dangers of human cloning are equally
highlighted in this chapter. The focus of chapter four is on the
uniqueness of the human person, which trying to x-ray the legal and
moral status of unborn member of human family. This aim is realizable
through an examination of the diverse debates on human cloning. The
whole endeavour is brought to a close in chapter five through a critical
evaluation.
