| Summary |
Annotation Brings together writings from different disciplines to show various perspectives on ethical issues now apparent in the field of reproduction. The author places emphasis on the extent to which people should be guided by the aim of trying to satisfy the desires both to have a child and to have a child of a certain quality. The book is suitable for professionals, students, and laity. Based on ten years of interviews, observations, clinical data, and media reports, Beit-Hallahmi (psychology, U. of Haifa) explores the growing phenomenon of Israelis' weathering the current cultural upheaval by seeking personal salvation in Judaism, new religious sects or cults, pop psychology movements, and the occult. Paper edition (unseen), $17.95. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR |
