The Human Fertilisation and Embryology Act 2008 was a major update to the UK¿s laws on the use reproductive technology and regulation of assisted reproduction. This book critically evaluates the recent developments, asking whether the Act has achieved the stated aim of being `fit for purpose¿ or, if not, what should be done to improve it. It brings together a range of experts in law and ethics in order to evaluate the fresh risks and challenges emerging from both established and existing technologies and techniques in the field of human fertilisation and embryology, as well as offering valuable insights into the social and regulatory challenges that lie ahead.
