New reproductive technologies and the science, industry, education, and social welfare systems in Canada .: Z1-1989/3-41-18E-PDF
We are in the midst of a worldwide knowledge revolution with regard to reproduction and to genetics. The issues that are posed by the application of this knowledge revolution to the human situation are much more than health issues; they are societal, ethical, legal, and economic issues. How this knowledge is applied has the potential to change the nature of our society and how it views women, children, and the family, and it will have consequences in many sectors of our society.
