Fertile Expectations: The Politics of Involuntary Childlessness in Twentieth-Century France - Studies in Modern French and Francophone History
Margaret Cook Andersen
An engaging history of motherhood, demography, and infertility in twentieth-century France, this book details the fraught political and cultural meanings attached to the notion of an “ideal” family size. The author situates fertility medicine, artificial insemination by donor, and child adoption within larger concerns about the French birthrate. -- .
