Eric Blyth, Ruth Landau, Richard Harries, ""

When a couple is considering a difficult choice such as IVF treatment or third party assisted conception, they may look to their religious faith for moral and ethical guidance. "Faith and Fertility" is a comprehensive collection of essays by academics and faith leaders from around the world. The reader is introduced to the cultural and religious understanding of fertility as it is practised among diverse international faith traditions. Each Chapter is written in an accessible and clear style, outlining each faith's history and its core beliefs and values, showing the influence these have on its moral and ethical perspective on the issues surrounding fertility law and policy globally. This book will be a welcome resource for anyone seeking to acquaint themselves with the plethora of attitudes towards fertility that are at work in today's global and multi-cultural world.

About the Author Eric Blyth is a professor of social work at the University of Huddersfield, UK, and is Chair of the British Association of Social Workers Project Group on Assisted Reproduction. His interest in assisted conception originates from his own experience of childlessness, infertility treatment and adoption. Eric is Editor of the British Journal of Social Work and actively provides consultation for radio and television on the subject of assisted conception and related fertility issues. Ruth Landau is an associate professor at the Paul Baerwald School of Social Work and Social Welfare at the Hebrew University of Jersalem. She spent many years prior in direct practice as a social worker, acting as the Executive Director of the Israeli Family Planning Association for eight years. Ruth has also published widely on social work and its relation to the issues surrounding fertility. Eric and Ruth are also the editors of Third Party Assisted Conception Across Cultures: Social, Legal and Ethical Perspectives, published by Jessica Kingsley Publishers.
