Review

'The Handbook serves as a comprehensive attempt to shed light on this complex web and untangle the variety of issues that characterize it. It offers a robust reading package and a valuable snapshot of current thinking in this area. It also stands as a reminder of how many different legal fields we, in fact, must evaluate when the legal aspects of surrogacy are under scrutiny.' -- Katja Karjalainen, International Journal of Law, Policy and The Family'This Research Handbook is an excellent comprehensive source of information on different facets of surrogacy, including its human-rights and ethical implications, family, contract, labor, criminal, constitutional and private international law dimensions. It provides an expert analysis of a broad scale of legislative approaches and covers African, Muslim, Eastern and Western European and common law jurisdictions.' -- Masha Antokolskaia, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, the Netherlands'This Research Handbook is a welcome and important contribution to the fast-changing field of the law of surrogacy. Bringing together experts from around the globe, it provides not only national and regional perspectives but also, and perhaps more importantly, highlights the connections of surrogacy with other areas of law and especially human rights as well as the cross-border dimensions of surrogacy. It thus delivers a highly stimulating package of contemporary information and debate for anyone who is interested in this area of law.' -- Jens M. Scherpe, Aalborg University, Denmark'The Research Handbook on Surrogacy and the Law is a refreshing and timely analysis of significant legal issues relating to surrogacy in the global context. The 26 chapters cover a wide range of topics, including discrimination, genetics, and global justice. With its admirable exploration of the theoretical, cultural and political complexities of surrogacy, the book offers a rich understanding of the field.' -- Naomi Cahn, University of Virginia School of Law, US'The Research Handbook on Surrogacy and the Law is an incredibly valuable resource for anyone interested in surrogacy developments. It provides a comprehensive international examination of the ethical challenges underlying surrogacy practices, the complex questions of cross-border recognition, the interplay of public and private law, and emerging global norms on the protection of children's rights and the interests of intended parents, gestational carriers, and genetic progenitors.' -- June Carbone, University of Minnesota, US'This wide-ranging Research Handbook provides a noteworthy addition to the growing literature exploring legal responses to surrogacy as a global phenomenon. Using national, transnational, international and comparative perspectives, the contributors elucidate the challenges raised and responses developed across different legal cultures to this difficult and complex issue.' -- Gillian Douglas, King's College London, UK
