Marginalized, Invisible and Unwanted: American Minority Struggles with Infertility and Assisted Conception 520 $a "Worldwide, over 75 million people are involuntarily childless, a devastating experience for many with significant consequences for the social and psychological well-being of women in particular. Despite greater levels of infertility and strong cultural meanings attached to having children, little attention has been paid politically or academically to the needs of minority ethnic women and men. This groundbreaking volume is the first to highlight the ways in which diverse ethnic, cultural and religious identities impact upon understandings of technological solutions for infertility and associated treatment experiences within Western societies. It offers a corrective to the dominance of the narratives of hegemonic groups in infertility research. 520 $a The collection begins with a discussion of fertility prevalence and access to treatment for minorities in the West and considers some of the key methodological challenges for social research on ethnicity and infertility. Drawing on primary research from the US, the UK, Eire, Germany, the Netherlands and Australia, the book then turns the spotlight onto the ways in which minority status and cultural and religious mores might impact on the experience of infertility and assisted reproductive technologies. It argues that more equitable access to culturally competent assisted conception services should be an essential component of a transformatory politics of infertility."--pub. desc. 650 0 $a Infertility $v Cross-cultural studies. 650 0 $a Human reproductive technology $v Cross-cultural studies. 650 12 $a Infertility. $2 [MeSH] 650 22 $a Cross-Cultural Comparison. $2 [MeSH] 650 22 $a Reproductive Techniques. $2 [MeSH] 650 07 $a Kinderlosigkeit. $2 swd 650 07 $a Psychosoziale Situation. $2 swd 650 07 $a Kulturvergleich. $2 swd 650 07 $a Reproduktionsmedizin. $2 swd 650 17 $a Onvruchtbaarheid $2 gtt 650 17 $a Culturele verschillen $2 gtt 655 4 $a Aufsatzsammlung. 700 1 $a Culley, Lorraine. 700 1 $a Hudson, Nicky. 700 1 $a Van Rooij, Floor. 830 0 $a Science in society series. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20180127065351.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=043CB32427E111E28D42D0E26AFF544EInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
