Description
Assisted Reproductive Technology: A Lawyer's Guide to Emerging Law and Science 3rd Edition Maureen McBrien ISBN 9781641052245
Since the groundbreaking first edition in 2005—one of the earliest legal guides on assisted reproductive technology (ART) written for practicing attorneys—the landscape of ART has changed dramatically. Advances in science, evolving laws, and shifts in public opinion, combined with a rapidly expanding and increasingly global market for ART services, have made the legal issues surrounding assisted reproduction more complex than ever.
The updated edition of Assisted Reproductive Technology reflects these significant changes, providing a comprehensive resource for attorneys navigating this rapidly evolving field. Legal challenges now extend beyond representing patients or clinics, including disputes over embryo and gamete disposition in divorce, as well as matters in personal injury, insurance, criminal law, probate, estate planning, and government regulation.
Drawing on a wide array of legal sources—including the growing body of case law addressing ART—this book presents complex topics in a clear, balanced, and practical manner. Key areas covered include:
-
Intrauterine insemination and state laws on spousal consent for donor sperm
-
In vitro fertilization (IVF) and cryopreserved embryos
-
Surrogacy laws across the United States
-
Posthumous reproduction
-
Advanced cellular technologies, including cloning, mitochondrial replacement therapy (MRT), and CRISPR
-
Regulation of ART and standards of care
-
Liability issues and malpractice considerations
-
Assisted reproduction contracts and legal documents
A final chapter examines the ABA’s Model Acts Governing Assisted Reproductive Technology, and a glossary defines the most commonly used terms in court decisions and legal commentary. This edition equips attorneys with the knowledge and practical guidance needed to advise clients effectively in this complex and fast-evolving area of law.

Shipping & Returns
-
Fast, standard shipping
Most students receive their books in 3 to 9 business days.
-
Free rental returns, whenever you are done
Print a prepaid return label from your account whenever you have finished with the book, and drop it at the carrier listed on the label. Returning early costs you nothing: it is the same free label, and sending it back sooner is welcome. Just be sure it reaches us by the semester deadline to avoid late fees.
-
Purchase returns: 15% restocking fee
Purchases can be returned within 30 days in the condition you received. We will email a prepaid return label; once we receive your book, we refund the purchase price minus the 15% restocking fee and the return label cost. Original shipping is non-refundable.
-
Shipping costs calculated at checkout
Real-time rates are quoted at checkout based on your address and the books in your cart. Returning your book is always free.
Rental Terms
Return by December 28, 2026 for Fall 2026 rentals.
- Late Fees
- Books returned after the semester deadline accrue a weekly late fee of about 10% of the book's Brand New price. Late fees stop once your book ships back or the total reaches the book's replacement value (its Brand New price) - you never pay more than that. We email a reminder 48 hours before any charge, and any late fees are charged to the payment method you save at checkout.
- Damage Fees
- Books returned damaged beyond normal classroom wear may be assessed a damage fee, capped at the book's replacement value (its Brand New price). Any damage fees are charged to the payment method you save at checkout after we inspect the returned book.
- Return Shipping
- Returning your book is free: print a prepaid label (USPS or UPS, whichever is cheaper for your package) from your account's My Rentals page, whether you send it back early or on the semester deadline. Cancelling a shipped rental for a refund is different: there, the return label cost comes out of your refund.
- 30-Day Cancellation
- Changed your mind? Cancel an active rental within 30 days of your order from My Account → My Rentals. Cancel before your book ships and it’s free; once it has shipped, we refund the rental price minus a 15% restocking fee and the return label cost, released once we receive your book. Shipping is non-refundable.
