Clone Codes by Patricia C. McKissak asks us to examine our understanding of cloning from a civil rights angle. How much of a person must be unique dna or actual flesh and blood in order to be human? At what point do our basic human rights no longer apply? An interesting story but simply laid out without mystery.

For other books about these ideas see The House of the Scorpion by Nancy Farmer and another book I'll name here after the boy wakes up and I can get in his room.
