		Harry Kenneth Woolf was born in 1933 in Newcastle, to a rich and happy Jewish family, second-generation immigrants who had done well in the building trade.
		The arc of Woolf's career since spans an era of exponential growth in the number of cases brought, and also a dramatic enlargement of the scope which the judiciary feels it has to intervene.
		Woolf's judgment, whose logic is impossible to follow, was that the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority was wrong to prevent the insemination, because when it did so it had not ruled (as it later did) that she should not have removed the sperm at all.
