The facts of life are as old as the species, but recent years have seen issues complicated beyond expectation. What better guide through the moral maze and scientific jargon than Smith, whose international bestseller, The Body, Desmond Morris called "one of the most interesting books ever written on the subject".In vitro fertilization, abortion, sex changes, gay adoption, euthanasia, and the possibility of gene manipulation are in the news all the time. The outcomes will affect us all. Older problems of birth control and female circumcision are still around and Smith keeps us up-to-date.
