Download or read book Reproductive Losses written by Christa Craven and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-05-30 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although there are far more opportunities for LGBTQ people to become parents than there were before the 1990s, attention to the reproductive challenges LGBTQ families face has not kept pace. Reproductive Losses considers LGBTQ people’s experiences with miscarriage, stillbirth, failed adoptions, infertility, and sterility. Drawing on Craven’s training as a feminist anthropologist and her experiences as a queer parent who has experienced loss, Reproductive Losses includes detailed stories drawn from over fifty interviews with LGBTQ people (including those who carried pregnancies, non-gestational and adoptive parents, and families from a broad range of racial/ethnic, socio-economic, and religious backgrounds) to consider how they experience loss, grief, and mourning. The book includes productive suggestions and personal narratives of resiliency, commemorative strategies, and communal support, while also acknowledging the adversity many LGBTQ people face as they attempt to form families and the heteronormativity of support resources for those who have experienced reproductive loss. This is essential reading for scholars and professionals interested in LGBTQ health and family, and for individuals in LGBTQ communities who have experienced loss and those who support them.

Book excerpt: “Our legal system characterizes the unborn in a multiplicity of conflicting ways--from persons to property, from body parts to medical investments. The law of civil wrongs is instructive. It weighs in when misconduct deprives aspiring parents of the child they had hoped to have, whether the transgression takes place during pregnancy or before it. The torts and remedies that govern these cases are riddled with a confusion that comes from treating prenatal life as anything but coherent. The overturning of Roe v. Wade has cast new light on the neglected doctrine of reproductive loss and deepened a tension about the meaning of prenatal life in both private and public law. This Article undertakes the first study of jury verdicts for mismanaged pregnancies and mishandled embryos. This original empirical analysis reveals wildly erratic outcomes. And it lends insight into the influence of racial and class biases about "wanted" children and "deserving" parents. We introduce a framework with which juries should appraise these losses according to three factors. First is the subjective experience of losing a wanted baby. Second is the objective chance of having that baby if not for misconduct. Third is accompanying traumas, such as delivering a dead baby in a stillbirth. Each factor operates to promote reproductive justice and recover principle in how the law treats prenatal death across the landscape of civil awards and criminal restrictions."

This book was released on 2023-05-02 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents a framework to link science, policy and practice for a comprehensive assessment of climate mitigation and adaptation investments and their impact on human health.The framework proposes to use weather and climate data to forecast health impacts over time, as well as biophysical and economic models to quantify the outcomes of investments in climate change adaptation and mitigation for relevant sectoral indicators and health co-benefits. It provides guidance on the economic valuation of health co-benefits of climate action, for inclusion in sector-specific cost–benefit analysis (CBA), including the spatial allocation of such costs and benefits. The framework developed and presented in this study is comprehensive, and provides various entry points for different audiences, including decision-makers in the public and private sectors, researchers and scientists, working in the health sector as well as in other thematic areas and related sectors affected by climate action.

Download or read book Freezing Fertility written by Lucy van de Wiel and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2020-12-15 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Welcomed as liberation and dismissed as exploitation, egg freezing (oocyte cryopreservation) has rapidly become one of the most widely-discussed and influential new reproductive technologies of this century. In Freezing Fertility, Lucy van de Wiel takes us inside the world of fertility preservation—with its egg freezing parties, contested age limits, proactive anticipations and equity investments—and shows how the popularization of egg freezing has profound consequences for the way in which female fertility and reproductive aging are understood, commercialized and politicized. Beyond an individual reproductive choice for people who may want to have children later in life, Freezing Fertility explores how the rise of egg freezing also reveals broader cultural, political and economic negotiations about reproductive politics, gender inequities, age normativities and the financialization of healthcare. Van de Wiel investigates these issues by analyzing a wide range of sources—varying from sparkly online platforms to heart-breaking court cases and intimate autobiographical accounts—that are emblematic of each stage of the egg freezing procedure. By following the egg’s journey, Freezing Fertility examines how contemporary egg freezing practices both reflect broader social, regulatory and economic power asymmetries and repoliticize fertility and aging in ways that affect the public at large. In doing so, the book explores how the possibility of egg freezing shifts our relation to the beginning and end of life.
