Reviews

'Centering women's embodied experience, Mellors brings a feminist analytic to an arena in which women shoulder an undue burden. From the late nineteenth century through the present and across three state regimes, women's wellbeing has consistently taken a back seat to nationalism, racial fitness, social stability and industrial production.' Nicole Elizabeth Barnes, Duke University 'Mellors Rodriguez brings refreshing insight into the complexities and variations in attitudes, policies and practices of birth control and abortion in twentieth-century China. Offering a nuanced perspective through personal interviews and archival research, this book will change what you think you know about China and its population policies.' Tina Phillips Johnson, author of Childbirth in Republican China: Delivering Modernity
