Reihe: Law, Society, Policy

This edited collection brings together a range of experts on surrogacy, at a time when the law in the UK has been fully reconsidered for the first time in generations.

Society has developed significantly since surrogacy laws were first written and the existing law is out of date and no longer fit for purpose. Each chapter in this collection considers one aspect of surrogacy regulation and analyses the potential effectiveness of proposed reforms or suggests what changes should be made based on experience in other jurisdictions.

This is an unprecedented contribution to the public and regulatory debate on surrogacy.
