The definition of a woman is often determined by her decision to embrace or reject motherhood, and whether she possesses the ability to give birth. Behavioural Scientist Pragya Agarwal delves into the societal, historical, and scientific factors that shape our perceptions and conversations about motherhood. Through her personal experiences and choices as a woman of South Asian heritage, she explores how women's bodies have been monitored and controlled throughout history, ultimately influencing the political constructs of motherhood and womanhood. (M)otherhood is an incredibly open and meticulously researched book that addresses themes of infertility, childbirth, and reproductive justice. It makes a compelling and urgent case for addressing society's obsession with women's bodies and fertility, challenging the status quo and advocating for a more inclusive and equitable approach to motherhood.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 488g\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 146 x 223 x 36 (mm)\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781838853167\n                            \u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: Main\n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pragya Agarwal","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44095145509114,"sku":"9781838853167","price":12.02,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/26a99f04e68b877ee370d6e0faf13cd5.jpg?v=1629859244","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/motherhood-on-the-choices-of-being-a-woman","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
