While IVG holds transformative potential for treating infertility, enabling same-sex reproduction, and expanding reproductive options, it also presents significant ethical, legal, and social challenges that demand urgent attention. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBringing together leading experts from scientific, philosophical, legal, and sociological backgrounds, this collection grounds the ethical debate in the latest scientific developments. Chapters analyse the technical foundations of IVG, its potential to overcome evolutionary constraints on human reproduction, and the complex ethical questions surrounding its applications. These include enhancing reproductive autonomy, facilitating same-sex and solo reproduction, the possibility of multiplex parenting involving more than two genetic progenitors, and the implications for embryo selection, including concerns about eugenics and iterative selection processes. The volume critically examines core concepts such as reproductive liberty, the moral status of embryos, the definition of parenthood and genetic relatedness, and the potential commodification of human life. It also considers public attitudes, the influence of social norms, and the need for robust governance frameworks to guide the responsible development and implementation of IVG.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Christopher Gyngell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0197810373\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780197810378\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/09\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.28lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.81d","brand":"Christopher Gyngell","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48623560917247,"sku":"9780197810378","price":105.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/revolutionizing-reproduction-christopher-gyngell-9780197810378","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
