About this title

Synopsis

In 1978 the author and Dr Patrick Steptoe were responsible for the first of over ten thousand subsequent test-tube births. This autobiographical account traces the history of Dr Edwards' pioneering work on surrogate motherhood and frozen embryos and the controversies it has inspired.
