The Age of Biological Control by the Scientists Who Cloned Dolly
When Dolly was cloned from the cell of an adult sheep in 1996 by the team led by Ian Wilmut and Keith Campbell at the Roslin Institute near Edinburgh, it was a pivotal moment in history, bringing the possibility of human cloning that much closer. The authors describe the background to their research, explain how they made the revolutionary discoveres that have opened up such vast new areas of science, and discuss the issues that arise from the new opportunities opening up.
