Publisher's Synopsis
This book is designed to analyse the response of the law in a number of jurisdictions to the challenge presented by modern reproductive technology. It provides a description of the current legal responses in these jurisdictions and analyses why certain aspects of these techniques have apparently become the major focus of legal attention in each. For example, to date in the United Kingdom law makers have focused virtually exclusively on commercial surrogacy, whilst in other jurisdictions attention has long been given to the problems of the position of children born as a result of these techniques. - -
