The scholarship that the manuscript imbibes is outstanding. It engages with critical debates in the field of citizenship, rights, social justice, equality, modernity and the state from a bottom-up approach... Drawing on ethnographic material from North India...it offers both new empirical data and new theoretical insights. - Jeevan R. Sharma, University of Edinburgh, UK This rich and nuanced book draws upon a long ethnographic engagement in North India to skilfully situate finely observed accounts of women's reproductive experiences within a wider field of development and state agencies, power and politics. It constitutes a powerful and unique empirical and theoretical contribution - of relevance to medical anthropology but speaking also to vital debates in public health and development practice about framings, evidence and social justice. - Hayley MacGregor, Institute for Development Studies, UK The scholarship that the manuscript imbibes is outstanding.
