While some of its chapters are imaginary, they are all empirically grounded in ethnography and richly theorized from diverse disciplines. The authors go far beyond a techno-optimism vs. techno-pessimism stance, stretching our thinking about birthing techno-sapiens to consider not only how our cyborgian reproductive lives are constrained and/or enabled by technology but are also about emotions and spirit. The world of reproductive health care and particularly that of genetic engineering is developing exponentially, and current challenges are vastly different from those of a decade ago. The book is provocative, intended to generate debate, ideas, and future research and to influence ethical policy and practice in human techno-reproduction. It will be of interest across the social sciences and humanities, for reproductive scholars, bioethicists, techno-scientists, and those involved in the development and delivery of maternity services.  aAll rights reserveduhttp://oapen.org/content/about-rights  aEnglish 7aAnthropology2bicssc 7aPregnancy, birth & baby care2bicssc  aMaternity services, technology1 aDavis-Floyd, Robbie4oth0 aDOAB Library.40uhttps://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/9861670zFree-to-read: DOAB: description of the publication  c93039d93039
