This article discusses testing on embryos and the ethics behind it

3) Designing Babies by Roger Gosden


This is a book in the library I found that is titled my exact research paper topic.  However, it was made in the late 90's so it might not be as relevant as I hoped.

4) Unzipped Genes by Martine Rothblatt


This is another book i found in the library that discusses genetically designing babies as well.  There is a lot of usable information in this one that I think will help a lot.

5) http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2009/03/03/earlyshow/health/main4840346.shtml

This is a link to a video of an interview with a scientist who actually does design babies. He can choose the sex as well as other traits and I think this video is a lot more recent and gives way for me to find out more about what this doctor and his company does.
