Caracteristici
Miscarriage impacts a huge number of people across the world but has all too often been treated as a taboo topic. This is changing and this book contributes to this by exploring common themes within personal accounts of miscarriage, and breaking down presumed oppositions between pregnancy, miscarriage, abortion, stillbirth and live birth

Recenzii
Deftly weaving together insights from first-hand accounts, philosophical analyses, and the social sciences, Browne argues persuasively that birth-centric models of pregnancy necessarily fail to grasp the complex, ambiguous phenomenon that is miscarriage. Her careful and insightful analysis provides a welcome contribution to scholarly conversations on gender, embodiment, and reproductive subjectivity.
Browne presents a vital call for solidarity in these times of increasing criminalization of pregnancy. Her understanding of agency is embodied and contextual, rather than a matter of straightforward choice. This compelling framework enables a relational politics of care for and among pregnant people, regardless of the results of a pregnancy.
Politicizing miscarriage as a feminist issue, and a question for philosophy, Pregnancy Without Birth breaks open the stigma and shame surrounding miscarriage and offers a powerful, timely and radical thesis about the politics of pregnancy, both with and without birth. A brilliantly argued and movingly written work.
