- Summary:
-
Explores what is means to have "less-than-perfect pregnancies" and "genetically different babies." This book tells the personal stories of women who have resisted medical eugenics - women who were told they shouldn't have babies because of perceived disability in themselves, or shouldn't have babies because of some imperfection in the child.
