"""This book expertly guides us through the intricacies of reproduction as a complex entanglement of biocultural, biographical and historically situated practices, in which relationships of unequal power and violence, as well as care and kinship are forged. The editors have showcased the astonishing breadth of topics that are centred on reproduction, from socio-cultural, evolutionary, linguistic, political, medical, technological and intersectional perspectives. The book will appeal to students and scholars at all levels with an interest in reproduction and I highly recommend it – even established experts will encounter new knowledge and will be inspired to broaden their thinking about reproduction beyond the confines of their own disciplinary imperatives and experiences. The book also has much to offer those who work to set policy and practices which relate, directly and indirectly, to reproduction. If clinicians, legislators, as well as those who determine public health policy, were to engage with the evidence and arguments so cogently presented in this book then perhaps the subject of reproduction could take its rightful place at the core of our everyday values, practices, and human rights."" - Rebecca Gowland in Childhood in the Past"
