16The Importance of Ontology for Feminist Policy-making in the Realm of Reproductive TechnologyCanadian Journal of Philosophy, Supplementary Volume 28 (sup1): 273-295. 2002.In the face of rapid technological developments and growing economic pressures, governments around the world are being called upon to regulate activities in the realm of biotechnology.

12Feminist Ethics and In Vitro FertilizationCanadian Journal of Philosophy, Supplementary Volume 13 (n/a): 264-284. 1987.New technology in human reproduction has provoked wide ranging arguments about the desirability and moral justifiability of many of these efforts.
