The author explores the myriad issues arising out of the rapid advances being made in the arena of reproductive technology. Employing a journalistic style that incorporates frequent real-world anecdotes, she explores the politics of abortion, economic and ethical issues of egg donorship and surrogate motherhood, choices arising from the growing popularity of fertility drugs, social consequences of genetically- related siblings in non-related families from egg and sperm donors, and a range of other topics.
