One in six couples experience difficulty in conceiving at some point in their lives. And the number appears to be increasing. Ten per cent of couples take more than a year to conceive. This book examines the causes of male and female infertility, as well as the various treatments. The ethical and medical issues surrounding these treatments, which include IVF and surrogacy, are also addressed. The information comes from a wide variety of sources and includes government reports and statistics, newspaper reports, features, magazine articles and surveys, literature from lobby groups and charitable organizations. The accompanying photocopiable study guide, "Exploring the Issues: Fertility Rights", will be available in January, 2001.
