Outer Origin

Science & Faith

“Elegantly written and impeccably researched, Outer Origin urges readers to consider the social, moral, and ethical consequences of ‘extra-uterine destining.’ Using the disparate lenses of history, philosophy, science, literature, feminism, and more, Laura Johnson Dahlke has created an absorbing and wide-ranging study of childbirth and what was once only the stuff of sci-fi novels. An essential, provocative read!”
