Using \u003cem\u003ein vitro\u003c\/em\u003e fertilization (IVF) as a hub, it critically examines the main areas of related socio-technical developments: reproductive science, birth control, animal husbandry, genetics and reproductive medicine. Employing a critical framework to illuminate dominant discourses, the book also highlights examples of social resistance, as well as contradictory responses to new reproductive technologies. Over eight chapters, the author examines the social history of reproduction and sexuality, reproductive technologies from old to new and debates surrounding new reproductive technologies and genetic engineering. \u003ci\u003eWomen and Reproductive Technologies\u003c\/i\u003e pays close attention to the interconnections between the business of reproduction (and replication industries), the sociality of reproduction (including reproductive justice) and what are considered the technologies themselves. As such, it constitutes essential reading for students and researchers in the fields of sociology, health studies and gender studies interested in the current state of human reproduction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Annette Burfoot, Derya G?g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1138606464\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781138606463\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/16\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 154\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.53lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.35d","brand":"Annette Burfoot","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43945094676735,"sku":"9781138606463","price":48.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_fb3092aa-1f08-4298-8075-3798e9f6abd9.jpg?v=1681506753","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/women-and-reproductive-technologies-annette-burfoot-9781138606463","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
