Beskrivning
Infertility and assisted reproductive technologies in India lie at the confluence of multiple cultural conceptions. These `conceptions' are key to understanding the burgeoning spread of assisted reproductive technologies and the social implications of infertility and childlessness in India. This longitudinal study is situated in a number of diverse locales which, when taken together, unravel the complex nature of infertility and assisted conception in contemporary India.

Recensioner i media

"This book is undoubtedly a valuable contribution to the emerging ethnographies from non-Western settings on assisted conception. It is also a pertinent reminder of the significance of religion in understanding the local variations in both managing and making sense of assisted conception. With its comparative gaze, it provides an important mirror, challenging Western assumptions." Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute (JRAI)
