Omschrijving
This book paints a comprehensive portrait of Mexico’s system of assisted reproduction first from a historical perspective, then from a more contemporary viewpoint.
“The book is an outstanding contribution to the field of Science and Technology Studies in Latin America … . The book is of great value to both postcolonial and feminist scholars with an interest on the complex relation between science and reproduction, between a global governance of health and the distinctively local hierarchies to which modernity so easily accommodates.” (Abril Saldaña-Tejeda, Tapuya, January 31, 2020)
“A Portrait of Assisted Reproduction in Mexico is appropriate for undergraduates and advanced readers interested in reproduction, gender, class inequality, Mexico, discourse analysis, commodification, and Science and Technology Studies. A Portrait is beautifully written and offers many layers of methodological and theoretical insights to its readers.” (Rosalynn Vega, Reproductive Biomedicine & Society Online, Vol. 9, 2019)
