SELECTED AS A NEW SCIENTIST 'BOOKS TO EXPAND YOUR MIND''THOUGHTFUL ... EXAMINES THE BOUNDARIES OF MOTHERHOOD THROUGH AN UNUSUAL LENS: ARTIFICIAL WOMBS. ... A SKILLED WRITER WITH A CAREFUL GRASP OF HER SUBJECT AND ITS FASCINATING HISTORY' Angela Saini, Telegraph'AN ENGROSSING INSIGHT INTO THE FUTURE OF BIRTH THROUGH THE LENSES OF THE MOST PRESSING WOMEN'S HEALTH ISSUES OF OUR ERA' New StatesmanThroughout human history, every single one of us has been born from a person. So far. But that is about to change. Scientific research is on the cusp of being able to grow babies outside human bodies, from machines, for the very first time. Claire Horn takes us on a truly radical and urgent deep dive into the most challenging and pertinent questions of our age. Could artificial wombs allow women to redistribute the work of gestating? How do we protect reproductive and abortion rights? And who exactly gets access to this technology, in our vastly unequal world? In this interrogative and fascinating story of modern birth, Eve imagines with eye-opening clarity what all this might mean for the future of humanity.AS HEARD ON RADIO 4'S TODAY PROGRAMME and TIMES RADIO

Recenzii

Eve ... looks with hope and trepidation to a future of externalised, artificial uteruses. Where do abortion, surrogacy and parenthood fit in a brave new 'ectogenetic' world?
In her thoughtful debut, Eve, legal scholar Claire Horn examines the boundaries of motherhood through an unusual lens: artificial wombs ... a skilled writer with a careful grasp of her subject and its fascinating history - handled with poignancy because she was pregnant while writing the book
An engrossing insight into the future of birth through the lenses of the most pressing women's health issues of our era ... a sobering reminder that wherever technology promises to improve women's lives, there also exists a threat that someone, somewhere, will attempt to co-opt it to control their bodies instead.
