This title was first published in 2002.In this informative and
captivating book the author presents a moral critique of the laws
governing the creation of designer babies. Alan Gewirth's Principle
of Generic Consistency is used as the starting point for developing
a framework, which is then used to critique the legal position in
the EU countries (with particular reference to the UK), Canada and
the USA. The conclusion the author reaches is that a proper moral
response to the issues covered must take account of specified prima
facie presumptions, to be applied by legitimately appointed
regulatory bodies. The text assesses the adequacy of existing
regulatory responses by reference to these presumptions. Also
containing detailed appendices summarizing the legal position with
regard to abortion and prenatal diagnosis, preimplantation genetic
diagnosis, in vitro embryo research, cloning, and germ-line gene
therapy in the countries mentioned above, this volume is an
indispensable resource for both students and scholars with a keen
interest in this highly contested field.
