Book Synopsis
It is a truth widely acknowledged that if you're pregnant and can afford one, you're going to pick up a pregnancy manual. Using a sophisticated rhetorical analysis, this title works to deconstruct pregnancy manuals while also identifying ways to improve communication about pregnancy and health care.

Trade Review
"The Rhetoric of Pregnancy connects and extends important scholarly conversations while advancing the ethical development of technical documentation and the practices (health care and otherwise) this documentation shapes. Practitioners, advocates, and pregnant women themselves will find this book accessible and instructive." (J. Blake Scott, author of Risky Rhetoric: AIDS and the Cultural Practices of HIV Testing)"
