About The Book:
"Politics of the Womb" delves deep into the personal and societal trauma of infertility, a condition often cruelly blamed on those who are unable to conceive. In this compelling narrative, Pinki Virani questions the modern reproductive technologies—such as aggressive IVF, invasive ICSI, exploitative ovarian hyper-stimulation, and commercial surrogacy—and explores their safety and ethical implications.
The book offers a critical analysis of the commercialization of childbirth, warning against the romanticization of uterus transplants and highlighting the risks associated with genetic theft and designer babies. It calls attention to the commodification of women’s bodies in the name of reproduction, drawing attention to the human cost of assisted reproductive technologies.
Accessible and thought-provoking, this path-breaking book advocates for the right to informed choice in responsible reproduction. Pinki Virani raises important questions about the politics of the womb, shedding light on a subject that affects many and urging a dialogue on ethical practices in reproductive technology.
