This study addresses the two most controversial issues in surrogate
motherhood: the commercial aspect of the practice and the issue of
parental rights. After setting the legal and moral backdrop of
procreative liberty in general, Rae argues that commercial
surrogacy is the moral equivalent of baby-selling and should be
prohibited. Add to this the potential for exploitation of the
surrogate in practices that are already in motion and it is not
hard to see the potential for harm to the parties involved. The
book concludes with a survey of state and international law to date
on surrogacy and a sample legislative proposal that could be
adopted by states that are currently deliberating the issues. The
commercial aspect of surrogacy makes it a potentially profitable
business, not only for the surrogates but also for the brokers who
facilitate the arrangements. This book promotes careful
forethought, a reconsideration of definitions of parenthood, and a
thorough examination of cases past and pending.
