Publisher's Synopsis
How should the law respond to the great moral dilemmas of our day? This highly topical book examines the relationship between law and morals, and relates its findings to such issues of current debate as discrimination, abortion, contraception for teenagers, experiments on embryos, and surrogate motherhood. It exposes popular misconceptions, and asks us to go beyond outdated ethical arguments to a new realization that by separating our moral from our factual disagreements, society may yet come to a consensus on some of its most intractable questions. Please note that the paperback edition only is available on inspection.
