"WHOA!!!! That should be all I say about this book but truly I can't say enough!! This is like a good conspiracy book but all the stories are true. For those of you who want to remain in a blissful ignorant state this is not the book for you. If you want to have to worry about where your sperm donation went to and how it was used you might want to pick this up!"
"Very well written and easy to read. It is the lawyer's take on the legality of in vitro fertilization, cloning, surrogate mother's, egg and sperm donors, etc. Scary what doctor's did in the early days of in vitro (wonder if it is still happening?) Interesting read that will have you shaking your head in disbelief. By the way, found this book from the bibliography in the back of Michael Crighton's book Next. Definitely worth reading!"
