"What is a family? What makes someone a parent? What rights should children have?
[This book] gives the reader insight not only into what the law is, but why it is
the way it is. It examines how laws have had to respond to social changes in family
life, from rapidly rising divorce rates to surrogate mothers, and gives insight into
family courts, which are required to deal with the chaos of family life and often
struggle to keep up-to-date with social and scientific changes. It also looks to the
future: what will families look like in the years ahead? What new dilemmas will the
courts face?" --Provided by publisher
