About this title: This landmark study presents the first systematic feminist analysis of not only how childbirth is managed in America but why it is managed the way it is. How did women come to lose control of pregnancy and childbirth to a male-dominated medical profession? Are midwifery and home birth better alternatives for pregnant women? With implications far beyond the delivery room, 'In Labor' speaks to central questions of women's identity and autonomy.
