Reviews

A Yankee Book Peddler US and UK Core Title for 2013 Classified as 'Research Essential' by Baker & Taylor YBP Library Services 'In Contested Spaces: Abortion Clinics, Women's Shelters and Hospitals feminist architectural research makes an important return to explicit women's issues with a powerful and deeply provocative situated examination of spaces in and around North American abortion clinics. Drawing on the richness of feminist analysis, cultural geography and design activism of the last three decades, Lori A. Brown shows the extent to which these spaces and the various geographies of access arise out of state law as well as activities of anti-abortion protestors who in turn drive new legislation and a vast security apparatus. The book is a tribute to the professionals and activists who continue to make choice a possibility, and an inspiring call to creative practitioners to get involved.' Katie Lloyd Thomas, Newcastle University, UK
