Abstract
While study of the relationship between new reproductive technologies and s exuality has proceeded apace with demography of the family and study of bio ethics, the cloning of a mammal presents new issues about how sexuality rel atedness, and science will be integrated in an era of entirely new forms of reproduction. Some of the ethical problems associated with the ways in whi ch cloning might change family, sexuality, and society are examined and a n eu: more systematic approach to research on ethics and new reproductive tec hnology is discussed.
