Published in 1998, this book is a collected volume of papers from
the first conference of the European Network for Biomedical ethics.
The main subject of this conference is the ethical assessment of
IVF in view of its concrete application as an infertility treatment
and the consideration of possible alternatives for use. Twenty
years after the introduction and the establishment of this therapy
a more concrete evaluation of its medical indications, social
conditions and consequences, the psychological consequences for the
women involved and the parent-child relationship becomes possible.
The legal and ethical evaluation of the reproduction technology as
regards for example the legal and moral status of supernumery
embyos in cryo-conservation has also to be considered in a European
perspective. The ethical evaluation concentrates today on the new
evolution that IVF technology takes in relation to the extension of
diagnostics possibilities due to genetic research. Little work has
been done on the connection between IVF and genetic diagnostics and
therapy, so the medical and ethical evaluation of the connecting
lines are also included in the book.
