Grade 9 Up–This collection of essays examines the rise of reproductive technologies from animal and human artificial insemination and amniocentesis to test-tube babies; modern advances, such as prenatal screening, genetic engineering, and cloning; and individual and societal responses to the technology. The latter section is the most interesting. An important book for collections in which genetics is a part of the curriculum.–Marilyn Fairbanks, Azure IRC, Brockton High School, MA
