‘This book offers a thorough and comprehensive analysis of assisted human reproduction ("AHR"), I would highly recommend this book to anyone who is interested in learning more about the complicated topic of AHR.’

Professor Angela Campbell, McGill University, Faculty of Law :

"This collection brings together a wealth of perspectives that address, through a range of theoretical perspectives, critical questions of law, ethics, and policy associated with assisted human reproduction. Leading voices in the fields of family, health and constitutional law contribute sophisticated and balanced reflections on complex, and often polarizing, issues that arise in connection with the governance of assisted procreation. The end result is a skillfully edited and seamlessly integrated collection that will be crucial reading for scholars, students, law and policy makers, legal practitioners and ethicists working in the domain of assisted reproduction."

I.Glenn Cohen, Professor of Law, Harvard Law School:

"From federalism to parentage to gamete provider anonymity, this is sure to be the classic treatment of the　Assisted Human Reproduction Act and reproductive technology in Canada. Incorporating materials from the U.S., U.K., and New Zealand, it will also be of great interest to comparativists."

Emily Jackson, Professor of Law, London School of Economics and Political Science:

"This important and timely new book offers readers incisive comparative analysis of the regulation of assisted reproduction at a critical moment in its history in Canada. Each of the chapters offers a fresh and compelling perspective on the ethical and legal dilemmas raised by the regulation of reproductive technologies. Taken as a whole, Regulating Creation is an excellent and essential addition to the literature."

Patricia Baird, OC, OBC, former Chair of the Royal Commission on New Reproductive Technologies and University Distinguished Professor Emerita, University of British Columbia.:

"This excellent and comprehensive volume makes a very valuable contribution to the continuing debate on what our policies should be around reproductive technologies. These issues will not go away − in fact, they are of increasing importance as biology and genetics continue to advance, presenting us with difficult social, legal, and ethical choices."
