Living Laboratories: Women and Reproductive Technologies

A$19.95

Robyn Rowland

Imagine an unborn foetus having children. In a world where frozen embryo banks and test-tube babies are presented as the ‘norm’, the culling of immature eggs from a female foetus is no longer science fiction. How does this affect our concepts of parenting and mothering? What are the ethical and moral implications of research into human reproduction? Robyn Rowland argues that women have become ‘living laboratories’ in a book that has achieved the status of a classic.

1992 | ISBN 9780725106997 | Paperback | 130 x 200 mm | 366 pages

Reviews

‘Excellent for girls of all ages, and for the men who want to talk with them.’ 

 –Alison Jones, The Weekend Herald, NZ

‘At last! A readable and exciting book by young women who talk about feminism and how it has shaped their lives.’ 

 –Beryl Fletcher, Waikato Times NZ

‘Talking Up revives the notion that feminism is a movement about social transformation.’ 

 –Sally Moyle and Sabina Lauber, Refractory Girl

‘This is one of the best books I have read in years. …The writers are intelligent and inspirational Australian women from all walks of life, who approach their lives with wisdom and hope. This book is a shining beacon saying feminism is alive and well, and young women can rejoice in the feminist movement.’ 

 –Meg, Tharunka

‘I finished this book feeling very optimistic. There is a new generation keeping the fires of feminism alight ... they are fierce and brave and funny, and they are willing to fight. We are in good hands.’ 

 –Anne Summers, Sydney Morning Herald
