Description
Summary:	We are all the result of gestation: the process of becoming before birth. The very nature of human gestation, however, has shifted and will continue to shift as a result of technology. Uterus transplantation and ectogestation, and the novel modalities of gestation beyond sex and beyond bodies that they potentially make possible, raise unique conceptual problems that have received little attention. This book presents a comprehensive ethico-legal analysis of the nature of gestation and of technologies enabling gestation, offering a concept analysis grounded in ontology, phenomenology, politics, and law.
