Psychiatric Aspects of Reproductive Technology (Issues in Psychiatry)

Reproductive technology, bright in the possibilities it makes available to infertile couples, also carries the uncertainty of long-term psychological, medical, sociological, legal, and ethical consequences. This volume brings together contributors from the diverse practice areas of law, obstetrics, psychiatry, and pediatrics to explore both the sublimity and the peril of these new technologies, and the effects they have had and may yet have on our society.
