Abstract

This book is an attempt to provide a new “ethical framework” that can then be applied to issues in reproductive and perinatal medicine. A new framework is needed because moral theories such as utilitarianism and Kantian ethics have proved to be deficient in deciding specific cases. The author seeks to balance two fundamental values: reproductive freedom and respect for life.
