Evie Kendal

Equal Opportunity and the Case for State Sponsored Ectogenesis

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Ectogenesis refers to the artificial gestation of a fetus outside the womb. Despite certain advantages for women's reproductive liberty, feminist groups remain divided regarding this technology. This book argues that reproduction imposes unjust burdens on women, and thus the ideals of equal opportunity demand continued research into ectogenesis.
