This is the first book ever to consider in depth why people want children, and specifically why people want children produced by reproductive technologies (such as IVF, ICSI etc) As the book demonstrates, even books ostensibly devoted to the topic of why people want children and the reasons for using reproductive technologies tend to start with the assumption that this is either simply a biological drive to reproduce, or a socially instilled desire. This book uses psychoanalysis not to provide an answer in its own right, but as an analytic tool to probe more deeply the problems of these assumptions. The idea that reproductive technologies simply supply an 'own' child is questioned in this volume in terms of asking how and why reproductive technologies are seen to create this 'ownness'. Given that it is the idea of an 'own' child that underpins and justifies the whole use of reproductive technologies, this book is a crucial and wholly original intervention in this complex and highly topical area. 606 $aParenthood$xPsychological aspects 606 $aChild psychology 606 $aHuman reproductive technology$xSocial aspects 606 $aHuman reproductive technology$xPsychological aspects 606 $aParenthood$xSocial aspects 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aParenthood$xPsychological aspects. 615 0$aChild psychology. 615 0$aHuman reproductive technology$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aHuman reproductive technology$xPsychological aspects. 615 0$aParenthood$xSocial aspects. 676 $a176 676 $a306.874 700 $aLesnik-Oberstein$b Karin$0852122 801 0$bFlBoTFG 801 1$bFlBoTFG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456684403321 996 $aOn having an own child$91902971 997 $aUNINA
