Coming to Life: Philosophies of Pregnancy, Childbirth and Mothering
This project was funded in part by a CSWS grant.
A “superlative collection of essays that…takes seriously the philosophical significance of women’s lived experience. Every woman, regardless of her own reproductive story, is touched by the often restrictive beliefs and norms governing discourses about pregnancy, childbirth and mothering. Thus the concerns of this anthology are relevant to all women and central to any philosophical project that takes women’s lives seriously.”
