Reproductive health care professionals in fields such as obstetrics and gynecology, family medicine and pediatrics face difficult ethical issues because they work at the crossroads of patient decision-making, scientific advancement, political controversy, legal regulation and profound moral considerations. The dilemmas these professionals face expose big-picture bioethics questions of interest to everyone, yet for clinicians striving to deliver excellent patient care the ethical questions that make daily practice challenging can be just as nuanced. This volume presents a carefully curated compilation of essays written by leading experts in the fields of medicine, ethics and law, who address key issues at the forefront of reproductive ethics.
