Not to rehash a point but this week’s news around the entire globe has included one headline story after another out of the World Congress on Bioethics in Sydney, Australia. There have been seven major stories and five radio interviews since I first mentioned the new international visibility of these meetings. I’m betting that much of the debate among bioethics pros is going to move in the direction of IAB. Today’s big story is the reaction in Calcutta to the repeated arguments by scholars from other countries that Indian sex selection must be disallowed.
