Life Before Birth provides a coherent framework for addressing bioethical issues connected to the moral status of embryos and fetuses. The book explores the conceptual and practical difficulties raised by abortion, prenatal torts, wrongful life, the crime of feticide, substance abuse by pregnant women, compulsory cesareans, assisted reproduction, and stem cell research.
