Abstract

"Human beings have been producing more twins, triplets, and quadruplets than ever before, due to the expansion of medically assisted conception. This book analyzes the anticipatory regimes of making multiple babies. With archival documents, participant observation, in-depth interviews, and registry data, this book traces the global and local governance of the assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs) used to tackle multiple pregnancy since the 1970s, highlighting the early promotion of single embryo transfer in Belgium and Japan and the making of the world's most lenient guidelines in Taiwan"--

Abstract

The field of In Vitro Fertilization is a relatively new field in medicine, constantly on the move. This field is an exquisite example of the vast power in the complementary use of basic research with clinical practice and opened a new route of great basic and clinical research possibilities. The knowledge base that allowed the accomplishment of the idea of in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer has much developed since. The vast body of research pertaining to this field allowed deepening our understanding in the processes related to reproduction. In this book on in vitro fertilization we present new and interesting updated information in various aspects of this field. This work is a result of collaborative work of an international group of professionals dedicated to contribute to the advancement of our knowledge.

Abstract

Thirty-five years after its initial success as a form of technologically assisted human reproduction, and five million miracle babies later, in virto fertilization (IVF) has become a routine procedure worldwide. In Biological Relatives, Sarah Franklin explores how the normalization of IVF has changed how both technology and biology are understood. Drawing on anthropology, feminist theory, and science studies, Franklin charts the evolution of IVF from an experimental research technique into a global technological platform used for a wide variety of applications, including genetic diagnosis, livestock breeding, cloning, and stem cell research. She contends that despite its ubiquity, IVF remains a highly paradoxical technology that confirms the relative and contingent nature of biology while creating new biological relatives. Using IVF as a lens, Franklin presents a bold and lucid thesis linking technologies of gender and sex to reproductive biomedicine, contemporary bioinnovation, and the future of kinship. -- from back cover.

Abstract

Louisa Brown, de eerste proefbuisbaby, sloeg iedereen met verstomming. Dat was het begin van schijnbaar onbegrensde mogelijkheden: van kersverse moeders met de leeftijd van oma's en embryo's ontstaan uit eicellen van geaborteerde vrouwen tot zwarte vrouwen die een blank kind willen omwille van een betere toekomst... Paul Schotsmans wandelt rond in de labo's van infertiliteitsklinieken en tast de grenzen af van wat kan, nog niet kan en ook niet wenselijk is. Hij luistert naar collega's wetenschappers die uitgebreid én verstaanbaar de nieuwste evoluties uiteenzetten. Maar ook denkt hij na over de status van het embryo en het welzijn van het kind, de voorwaarden tot verantwoord ouderschap, het recht op kinderen... Dit is geen boek gevuld met juichkreten maar een doordachte bezinning met behoedzaam geformuleerde antwoorden. Zich bewust van de draagwijdte van zijn stellingen, analyseert de auteur kritisch de kerkelijke standpunten met het oog op waarachtige menswaardigheid. Een moedig boek over een delicaat onderwerp.
