Mothers who deliver : feminist interventions in public and interpersonal discourse

Stitt, Jocelyn Fenton. (Added Author). Powell, Pegeen Reichert, 1970- (Added Author).

Summary: "This volume moves beyond a critique of patriarchal motherhood to imagine and implement new and more empowering theories and modes of mothering. With its focus on mothering as agency and in its attention to twenty-first-century motherhood issues, it is a distinct and original collection."--Andrea O'Reilly, editor of Feminist Mothering --Book Jacket.
