As part of our continuing series on 'when life begins - the surprising history of conception' we talk with Professor Emeritus Elizabeth Spahn about the surprising history of legal views on conception -when life begins- and it's probably not what you think. There is so much political talk about women having babies these days - whether they have too many or not enough - that is seemed essential to see how our society came to it's current understandings about conception.
