Synopsis

With the development of complex reproductive technologies and the ensuing controversies in reproductive ethics, there is an urgent need for more careful examination of moral principles, current practices, and social policies pertaining to reproduction. The issues examined in this collection of nine papers include abortion, the cryopreservation of embryos, the selective termination of foetuses in multiple pregnancies, social policy for gestational 'surrogacy', and the regulation of in vitro fertilization. Adopting a feminist perspective, the book places reproductive autonomy at the centre of debates about the control of reproduction.
