Our Bodies, Our Babies is a groundbreaking book by Kerreen M Reiger, a sociologist and feminist, that explores the forgotten women's movement of the 1970s and 1980s, which challenged the medicalisation and institutionalisation of childbirth and motherhood. The book, based on interviews and archival research, reveals the experiences and perspectives of the women who participated in this movement, who sought to reclaim their bodies, their babies, and their choices. The book also analyses the impact and legacy of this movement, and its relevance for the contemporary debates on reproductive rights and health. The book is signed by the author.
