«'What an incredible read! A page-turner full of fascination if not suspense, providing a wonderful and comprehensive account of the genesis of IVF which has transformed the lives of many millions in ways that cannot be over-exaggerated, and is succinctly summed up in Louise Brown's introduction: 'This publication provides an important record for the future, capturing aspects of the early days of IVF that might otherwise be lost forever as time moves on.' This is a truly wonderful record and one that should be read by everyone in the field of reproductive medicine.'
