Trade Review"Assisted Reproduction Policy in Canada is meticulously researched. Dave Snow is a punchy writer. Much of political science is concerned with answering one question: ‘What drives politics?’ As Assisted Reproduction shows, it is an impulse for government over-reach, a fetish for control and regulation, and a mistaken suspicion that Canadian society is comprised of wolves and sheep." -- Holly Doan *
