Professor Robertson sketches an elegant framework for policy evaluation and regulation of the use of preimplantation genetic diagnosis for various medical, medical related, and non-medical purposes. In criticism of his position, I argue that the distinction between policy and ethics upon which his argument relies is highly unstable, and the approach taken to ethical evaluation of particular parental interests leaves open many issues which the policy approach would hope to exclude. In conclusion I argue that while his position ultimately fails, the onus is on his critics to come up with a viable and satisfying alternative.
罗伯逊教授勾勒出了一个精妙的框架，用于对植入前基因诊断用于各种医学、医学相关及非医学目的的情况进行政策评估和监管。在对他的立场提出批评时，我认为他的论点所依赖的政策与伦理之间的区分极不稳定，而且对特定父母利益进行伦理评估所采用的方法留下了许多政策方法本希望排除的问题。最后我认为，虽然他的立场最终失败了，但批评他的人有责任提出一个可行且令人满意的替代方案。
