Ethics and Human Reproduction: A Feminist Analysis par Christine Overall
This book changed my life. It was required reading for one of my Philosophy courses but it really opened my eyes. Years later, when I was having my first child, I reread it and it guided many of my decisions. The main themes are overmedicalization and commercialization of all aspects of reproduction, from pregnancy, delivery to lactation. This should be required reading for all females, nay, all humans. Let's regain control of what is generally a natural and low-risk human process.
