Taylor & Francis Ltd Embodied Progress
Book SynopsisThis new edition of Sarah Franklin's classic monograph on the development of in vitro fertilisation (IVF) includes two entirely new chapters reflecting on the relevance of the book's findings in the context of the past two decades and providing a state-of-the-art' review of the field today.Over the past 25 years, both the assisted conception industry and the academic field of reproductive studies have grown enormously. IVF, in particular, is belatedly becoming recognised as one of the most influential technologies of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, with a far-reaching set of implications that have to date been underestimated, understudied and under-reported. This pioneering text was the first to explore the emergence of commercial IVF in the United Kingdom, where the technique was originally developed. During the 1980s, the British Parliament devised a unique system of comprehensive national regulation of assisted reproduction amidst fractious public and media Table of ContentsIntroduction to the 1st edition.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Spirituality and Childbirth
Book SynopsisHighlighting aspects of birth often taken for granted, ignored or left silenced, this book questions the art and meaning of childbirth. Addressing spirituality in and around the start of life from a variety of thought-provoking perspectives, it examines the apparent paradox of impersonal biomedical-technocratic systems operating alongside the meaningful experiences encountered by those involved. Themes covered include: Notions of holism and spirituality, culture, religion and spirituality Childbirth significance at societal level Spiritual care in maternity care provision Birth environment, mood, space and place Spiritual experience of all those involved, including health professionals Spiritual experience when birth is complex and challenging When birth and death are juxtaposed. Although there is considerable literature on spiritualityTrade Review"One highlight for me is Alison Barrett’s essay which takes apart the language of obstetrics to analyse the paradox of ‘spiritual obstetrics’. Another highlight is the practical and nuanced discussion by Lemay and Hastie on how midwives can hold the sacred space of childbirth. The book concludes that spirituality is a normal and special part of the childbirth experience and asks how can we ensure that this is respected and protected?"-Rea Daellenbach, Lecturer in Midwifery, Ara Institute of CanterburyTable of ContentsList of figures and tablesNotes on contributorsForewordAcknowledgementsPart I: Setting the context Chapter 1: Introduction Susan Crowther and Jenny HallChapter 2: Childbirth as a sacred celebration Susan CrowtherChapter 3: Ritual and art in a philosophy of birth Anna HennesseyPart II: Spirituality and the childbirth year Chapter 4: Pregnancy and the unborn child Jenny HallChapter 5: Spiritual questions during childbearing Ingela LundgrenChapter 6: Pregnancy loss and complexity Joan Gabrielle LalorChapter 7: Holding sacred space in labour and birth Céline Lemay and Carolyn HastieChapter 8: Couples’ spiritual experiences at birth Jenny ParrattChapter 9: Spiritual obstetrics Alison BarrattChapter 10: Growth and renewal through traumatic birth Gill ThomsonChapter 11: Spirituality when a newborn is unwell Sílvia CaldeiraChapter 12: Parenthood and spirituality José Miguel de Angulo and Luz Stella LosadaPart III: Pulling the threads together Chapter 13: Conclusion: ‘there is something going on at birth!’ Jenny Hall and Susan CrowtherIndex

HarperCollins Publishers Inc Yeah No. Not Happening. How I Found Happiness
Book SynopsisCalling BS, Karbo blows the lid off of this age-old trend and asks women to start embracing their awesomely imperfect selves.There is no one more dangerous than a woman who doesn’t care what anyone thinks of her.Trade Review“If you’ve ever risen at dawn to make a kale smoothie before rushing off to exercise class, I recommend you turn off your alarm, go back to sleep, and reach for this book when you wake up. Yeah, No. Not Happening is part personal story, part historical record, and part cheery, chiding manifesto for all the women who find the siren call of self improvement too strong to resist. But resist we must, and Karbo has shown us how.” — Kristin Van Ogtrop, author of Just Let Me Lie Down: Necessary Terms for the Half-Insane Working Mom “Yeah, No. Not Happening rallies all women to turn away from commodified self-improvement and toward our own imaginations, intelligence, creativity, and agency. What if radicalizing self-worth means we already know who we are and that we’re ready to do something about it, with the flex of our minds rather than our money? Karbo is the only beauty or bath bomb we need right now. I’m in.” — Lidia Yuknavitch, author of The Misfit’s Manifesto and Verge “Free yourselves! This book is a hilarious and refreshing look at the absurd things we do in the name of self-improvement and personal growth. And for what?! Read this, let go of the bullsh*t, and come as you are.” — Caroline Dooner, author of The F*ck It Diet “I love this book so much I want to eat it. It is spit-your-coffee-out funny, spot-on in its truthfulness and witty observations, and as empowering as anything I’ve ever read. This book made me exhale, which conversely made me realize how long I’d been holding my breath waiting for it. Folks, it’s here.” — Jennifer Pastiloff, author of On Being Human: A Memoir of Waking Up, Living Real, and Listening Hard “It’s always a happy day when another Karen Karbo book comes my way. This one, which says thanks but no thanks to self improvement with the help of entertaining history, fun facts, and cheeky yet smart advice, is best read (devoured) while mainlining hot fudge and sporting a bitch T-shirt and sweats, with dishes piled in the sink and the Fitbit tossed in the trash. Read it and let it work its magic.” — Cathi Hanauer, author of Gone and editor of The Bitch Is Back and The Bitch in the House “Yeah, No. Not Happening is warm, witty, effortlessly sophisticated—reading it is like having champagne with your most engaging friend. But under the delicious prose is a heartening lesson: chasing after impossible-to-achieve standards of beauty and being never makes us happy. In turning our backs on the nonstop pressure to improve ourselves, we discover our true selves and step into our power.” — Sheila Weller, author of Girls Like Us and Carrie Fisher: A Life on the Edge

Nobody Knows the Trouble I’ve Seen let’s us know how to break this unhealthy cycle by learning self-forgiveness, which through God’s help, leads to self-love and the power to say, ‘No, I come first in my life.” — Mary J. Blige "Through a blend of irrefutable scientific data and deeply moving personal narratives, Inger Burnett-Zeigler’s Nobody Knows the Trouble I’ve Seen takes an unflinching look at the sources of Black women’s pain and explodes the myth that our strength comes without sacrifice. This book invites us to be our whole, authentic selves—capable, yes, but also vulnerable and deserving of love and care. Nobody Knows the Trouble I’ve Seen is an offering, an affirmation, a balm, and a roadmap to transformation and real healing—A gift to Black women everywhere." — Natalie Baszile, author of Queen Sugar and We Are Each Other's Harvest: Celebrating African American Farmers, Land & Legacy “Patience, courage, and perseverance are required in taking good care of yourself. You are worthy. You are important. Your song is part of a great symphony! Nobody Knows the Trouble I’ve Seen will help you find your instrument and melody.” — Jenifer Lewis, author of The Mother of Black Hollywood “In this excellent debut, clinical psychologist Burnett-Zeigler provides a road map to help Black women find “a healthy balance between strength and vulnerability.” She begins by articulating the connections between systemic racism and sexism, generational and childhood trauma, and the prevalence of negative individual physical and mental health outcomes for Black women. Blending personal anecdotes, case studies, and questions for reflection, Burnett-Zeigler helps readers identify if they are acting “from a space of trauma”—such as by using common coping mechanisms like embracing a facade of “being strong—and to envision proactive choices instead. In the book’s second half, she addresses obstacles Black women face in accessing and making the most of mental health treatment—such as lack of coverage and skepticism toward practices—and provides tips for dealing with both. Ultimately, Burnett-Zeigler demonstrates how the idea of the “strong Black woman” can be both helpful and harmful, and lays out ways for readers to eliminate “what no longer serves” them. This thorough analysis effectively pulls back the curtain on the emotional and health barriers Black women face to suggest practical strategies for change.” — Publishers Weekly “'Listen to Black women' and 'Black Girl Magic' are common phrases these days. Inger Burnett-Zeigler reveals what is unsaid about the Strong Black Woman — she needs to tend to her own individual health. This book is affirming and full of lessons.” — Natalie Y.

HarperCollins Publishers Inc Nobody Knows the Trouble Ive Seen
Book SynopsisBlack women are beautiful, intelligent and capable —but mostly they embrace strong. Esteemed clinical psychologist, Dr. Inger Burnett-Zeigler, praises the strength of women, while exploring how trauma and adversity have led to deep emotional pain and shaped how they walk through the world. Black women’s strength is intimately tied to their unacknowledged suffering. An estimated eight in ten have endured some form of trauma—sexual abuse, domestic abuse, poverty, childhood abandonment, victim/witness to violence, and regular confrontation with racism and sexism. Nobody Knows the Trouble I’ve Seen shows that trauma often impacts mental and physical well-being. It can contribute to stress, anxiety, PTSD, and depression. Unaddressed it can lead to hypertension, diabetes, heart disease, overeating, and alcohol and drug abuse, and other chronic health issues.Dr. Burnett-Zeigler explains that the strong Black woman image does not take into account the urgency of Black women’s needs, which must be identified in order to lead abundant lives. It interferes with her relationships and ability to function day to day. Through mindfulness and compassionate self-care, the psychologist offers methods for establishing authentic strength from the inside out. This informative guide to healing, is life-changing, showing Black women how to prioritize the self and find everyday joys in self-worth, as well as discover the fullness and beauty within both her strength and vulnerability.
