Publisher's Synopsis
Disputes about disposition of embryos and gametes in divorce are increasingly common, but assisted reproduction technology (ART) impacts other areas of the law, including personal injury, insurance, criminal law, estate planning, and government. Drawing from multiple legal sources, this book presents complex information in a direct, balanced and fair manner. Topics covered include: the right to privacy; the Uniform Parentage Act; intrauterine insemination and in vitro fertilization; cryopreserved embryos; surrogacy; posthumous reproduction; reproductive cloning; standards of care, malpractice, and liability; and ART contracts.
