Women As Wombs: Reproductive Technology And The Battle Over Women's Freedom
Janice Raymond

A scathing analysis of high-tech biomedical reproductive techniques. Women as Wombs provides groundbreaking insights into the debate over reproductive technology and its ethical, legal, and political implications. Raymond asserts that far from being liberatory issues of ‘choice’, these techniques – including in vitro fertilization, surrogacy, and sex selection – are a threat to women’s basic human rights.

Kirkus Review

‘A strongly written, carefully reasoned critique of the reproductive liberalism that … lies behind current concepts of reproductive choice.’
