Synopsis

While procreation is ubiquitous, attention to the ethical issues involved in creating children is relatively rare. The authors of Debating Procreation take opposing views on this important question. David Benatar defends the anti-natalist view that procreation is always wrong and David Wasserman defends procreation against this and related challenges.
