This book lifts the curtain on reproductive negligence, gives voice to the lives it upends, and vindicates the interests that advances in medicine and technology bring to full expression. It charts the legal universe of errors that: deprive pregnancy or parenthood of people who set out to pursue them; impose pregnancy or parenthood on those who tried to avoid these roles; or confound efforts to have a child with or without certain genetic traits.
