Synopsis What lengths should people with fertility issues go to in order to have children? This is the first book of its kind-internationally-to focus on the assisted reproduction industry and examine not only its rates of success and failure, but also the long-term effects of the procedures on mother and child. The evidence is damning and beyond reasonable doubt: in vitro reproduction can harm the unborn child and have serious repercussions on the mother`s health. The risks are higher in aggressive in vitro fertilization. Clearly written, without medical and other jargon, Politics of the Womb squarely confronts what has today become the business of baby-making. A must-read for all women and men examining their reproductive options.
