"By 2020, the IVF industry is predicted to be worth $21bn. And by the year 2100, it's forecast that 3% of the world's population will exist because of in-vitro fertilization - either as IVF babies themselves, or their descendants. Science journalist

Osman
explains the treatments, facts and research that underpin the industry, while exploring the first-hand experiences of couples trying to conceive, and her own personal IVF story. The book will reveal the science behind how IVF and other treatments like ICSI work, the diverse reasons why people struggle to conceive, and what can be done to improve the chances of conception via IVF. It will also discuss how to handle the emotional rollercoaster, the real costs involved in undergoing treatment, and the extras and scams to look out for--what's worth investing in, and what's not. Featuring interviews with industry professionals from consultants to counselors, and cutting through the jargon and information overload, here is everything you need to know about the ever-growing and evolving world of IVF."
