Summary
"This important book describes the medical, ethical and legal aspects of reproduction in the context of recent medical advances - areas covered include the legal aspects of marriage and sexual intercourse, the control of fertility, and the modern treatment of childlessness due to both male and female abnormality. Legal and moral issues arising from surrogacy are also discussed, as are the rights of the fetus - with particular attention being given to abortion, injury and treatment in utero, and experimentation Medico-legal aspects of parenting include the dilemmas consequent upon the birth of a defective child and the provision of treatment for children. A final section considers the problem of child abuse." --
