In this groundbreaking work, the authors explore the intricate interplay between commercial surrogacy and the global healthcare system, challenging conventional views with fresh insights into ethical, legal, and medical dimensions.

Delving into a rapidly evolving landscape, the book reveals how commercial surrogacy transcends economic transactions to question the very core of healthcare ethics. It scrutinises international legal frameworks and exposes the delicate balance between a surrogate's autonomy and the financial pressures that can undermine it. At the heart of the discussion is the pivotal role of healthcare providers, who navigate complex ethical dilemmas while upholding the rights and well-being of surrogates, intended parents, and children. Through incisive analysis and compelling case studies, this book argues for the urgent need for robust safeguards, comprehensive guidelines, and specialised training to equip professionals for the challenges of modern surrogacy practices.

This engaging narrative not only maps the evolving dynamics of commercial surrogacy but also calls for a sustainable, ethical future where healthcare remains a cornerstone of the surrogacy journey. Essential reading for researchers, advanced students, healthcare professionals, and policymakers alike, this book offers a holistic and provocative examination of an issue at the crossroads of ethics, law, and medicine.
