Book Talk: Birth Rights and Wrongs – How Medicine and Technology are Remaking Reproduction and the Law – September 10

Tuesday, September 10, 2019
4:00 pm – 5:00 pm
Harvard Law School, Wasserstein Hall, Milstein East C 1585 Massachusetts Ave., Cambridge, MA

Book Talk: Birth Rights and Wrongs – How Medicine and Technology are Remaking Reproduction and the Law

Join author Dov Fox and an expert panel as they discuss his new book Birth Rights and Wrongs: How Medicine and Technology are Remaking Reproduction and the Law (Oxford University Press, 2019).

Panelists will explore the ways in which the book seeks to lift the curtain on reproductive negligence, give voice to the lives it upends, and vindicate the interests that advances in medicine and technology bring to full expression. They will also examine the book’s effort to force citizens and courts to rethink the reproductive controversies of our time, and to equip us to meet the new challenges–from womb transplants to gene editing–that lie just over the horizon.
