With the high-speed development of life science and steady improvement of cloning technology, therapeutic cloning technology, belongs to a part of it, increasingly causes the attention of people. As a revolutionary technology, therapeutic cloning technology make the human break through the natural physiological limit, changed the understanding of traditional life and the concept of their own needs, brought new opportunities to the development of human and nature, at the same time brings us a lot of negative effects. So therapeutic cloning technology actually produce which kind of value? For what reason the value of the dual character emerge? How should we face its negative value? These problems are needed to be studied in this article.This paper starts at the theory angle of interactions between technology and social, specific analysis the therapeutic cloning technology impacts from the scientific value,the medical value and the humanistic value. It demonstrates the therapeutic cloning technology has dual value and analyzes the reasons. It is beyond doubt of the significant meaning of the society for the reasonable use of this technology,but some factors are hampering the realization of its positive value. From the main body, it seems to be due to widespread misunderstanding, the application of ethical predicaments and related legislation lag; From the object,it is due to the development of their own technology limitation and wide gap of technology. In addition, positive value of therapeutic cloning technology can be realized with production of negative value. From a historical perspective, the technology of negative value is impossible to eradicate, but can be cut in some degree and range for a particular technology negative value. This paper argues that for negative value of therapeutic cloning technology,we can digest negative value from technology, law, ethics and other aspects.
