According to the text, what is the purpose of human somatic cell nuclear transfer?

The controversial practice of human somatic cell nuclear transfer has been touted as one of the most extraordinary scientific developments of all time. It has been a source of violent debate among scientists and religious leaders alike, touching spiritual, ethical and legal nerves. Commonly known as human cloning, the procedure of creating an embryo consists of implanting DNA from specialized asexual cells into an egg which has had its DNA removed. The egg then undergoes chemical or shock manipulation, inducing a fertilized state which provokes the embryonic development of a fetus with the same genetic code as that of its donor. Such replication has hitherto been a natural reproductive process restricted to plants. Applying it to human reproduction has been proclaimed by many as immoral.
