Let us overthrow, in short, the “family”\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe surrogacy industry is estimated to be worth over $1 billion a year, and many of its surrogates around the world work in terrible conditions—deception, wage-stealing and money skimming are rife; adequate medical care is horrifyingly absent; and informed consent is depressingly rare. In \u003ci\u003eFull Surrogacy Now\u003c\/i\u003e, Sophie Lewis brings a fresh and unique perspective to the topic. Often, we think of surrogacy as the problem, but, \u003ci\u003eFull Surrogacy Now\u003c\/i\u003e argues, we need more surrogacy, not less!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRather than looking at surrogacy through a legal lens, Lewis argues that the needs and protection of surrogates should be put front and center. Their relationship to the babies they gestate must be rethought, as part of a move to recognize that reproduction is productive work. Only then can we begin to break down our assumptions that children “belong” to those whose genetics they share. Taking collective responsibility for children would radically transform our notions of kinship, helping us to see that it always takes a village to make a baby.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAll books at Vastela are pre-owned.
