Cloning, genetic screening, embryo freezing, in vitro fertilization, Norplant, RU486--these are the technologies revolutionizing our reproductive landscape. Through the lens of procreative liberty--meaning both the freedom to decide whether or not to have children as well as the freedom to control one's reproductive capacity--John Robertson, a leading legal bioethicist, analyzes the ethical, legal, and social controversies surrounding each major technology and opens up a multitude of fascinating questions: Do frozen embryos have the right to be born? Should parents be allowed to select offspring traits? May a government force welfare recipients to take contraceptives? Robertson's arguments examine the broad range of consequences of each reproductive technology and offers a timely, multifaceted analysis of the competing interests at stake for patients, couples, doctors, policymakers, lawyers, and ethicists.Cloning, genetic screening, embryo freezing, in vitro fertilization, Norplant, RU486--these are the technologies revolutionizing our reproductive landscape.

Published in 1998, this work is concerned, in the main, with reproduction - for which marriage is not an essential prerequisite. Nevertheless, much of sexuality and the greater part of parenthood still subsist within the marital relationship. Sex and marriage are interdependent - indeed the definition of the latter depends on the former. After looking at the prerequisites for marriage and for making a marriage void, the author shows that the medico-legal interests of marriage relate to the mental health and the sex of the parties. The author also looks at various aspects of the sexual-familial relationship, including contraception, sterilization, abortion, protection of the foetus, foetal experimentation, the infertile husband, the infertile woman, defective neonates and infants, consent to treatment and research in children, the protection of young children and the killing of children within the family. Cases are used to highlight the legal aspects of these subjects.

The present report, designed for the 1986 Meetings of Commonwealth Ministers of Law and Health, addresses general issues in Commonwealth reproductive health law. An initial overview of reproductive health services includes consideration of maternal and child mortality and their impact on family life. Succeeding chapters address a variety of legal aspects of contraception, sterilization and abortion. Also addressed are legal aspects of responses to infertility. Prominent issues in contraception include the House of Lords' decision on adolescent access to contraceptive services in the widely discussed English Gillick case, and legal aspects of newer forms of contraception. Sterilization issues include discussion of the growing Commonwealth case law on legal consequences of sterilization failure. Abortion issues include new legislation in Barbados, Bermuda, Ghana and Montserrat and litigation in, for instance, Canada and Australia. Infertility is a growing problem in all parts of the Commonwealth. Causes of infertility are discussed, followed by consideration of legislation and proposals for legislation on human artificial reproduction. The Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women is considered to warrant special attention by the audiences addressed in this report. Discussion draws attention to the Commonwealth Secretariat's accession kit developed to facilitate membership in this Convention by Commonwealth countries which have yet to make a legal commitment to its principles and reporting mechanisms. The call for equal access to health including family planning services must be heard by Law Ministers and Health Ministers alike.

While there is extensive literature on the social history, politics, and legal aspects of birth control and abortion in the United States, the history of family planning as a policy remains to be fully recorded. This volume is intended to contribute to this history by examining birth control and abortion within a larger cultural, policy, and comparative framework. The essays contained in this volume represent a variety of perspectives and scholarly interests. In many instances the authors differ with each other as well as with the editor on fundamental points of historical interpretation. They all, however, share a commitment to study the politics of population within a scholarly framework that emphasizes the importance of policy history for understanding past and contemporary problems.
