Explores issues relating to reproduction. Analyzing medical ethics and the law in a variety of jurisdictions, this book makes suggestions on reforming the law in the UK. It examines: embryo research; failed sterilization; and, the fertility of the incompetent international initiatives with regard to the application of biology and medicine.
This book focuses upon the permissibility of encroachment on the pregnant woman''s autonomy in the interests of the foetus. Drawing on the law in England & Wales, the United States of America and Germany, Samantha Halliday focuses on the tension between a pregnant woman''s autonomy and medical actions taken to protect the foetus, addressing circumstances in which courts have declared medical treatment lawful in the face of the pregnant woman''s refusal of consent.
