Conceiving Contemporary Parenthood by Charlotte Faircloth
Drawing on qualitative research from around the world, the book is particularly anchored in two bodies of social science scholarship - sociological and anthropological inquiries into the cultural impact of reproductive technologies on the one hand, and parenting culture studies on the other.Zeynep B. Gürtin is Lecturer at the Institute for Women’s Health at University College London (UCL), UK. She is a sociologist of reproduction and gender and her work brings together changing social trends in fertility with women's own personal accounts of their expectations and experiences, to provide insights about contemporary reproduction and relationships. Her recent research has focused on single women’s fertility options, including egg freezing and solo motherhood; motherhood after 40; and reproductive anxiety and choices.
