A leading book on reproductive ethics

I found this book extremely well conceived and substantively outstanding. It provides a set of essays by philosophers, lawyers, sociologists, doctors, theologians, etc. in which critical ethical and policy issues raised by the new reproductive technologies are addressed. Moreover, it provides descriptions of policies and procedures at four different sorts of egg donation centers in various parts of the country. Finally, it provides recommendations by a board funded by respected foundation grantors and composed of people who would have been appointed to a public board were Congress and the President willing to have one on this controversial subject. It's a must for anyone who wants to know what is going on in this field.
