Everything conceivable
In this book the journalist Liza Mundy explores the impact of assisted reproduction on individuals as well as the ethical issues raised and the potentially vast social consequences. She explains the science, reports on the changes in the the way people think about parenthood, childbirth and life, and presents personal stories of doctors, families, surrogates, sperm and egg donors, infertile men and women, single and gay and lesbian parents, and children conceived through technology.- Creator

Unlikely fissures and uneasy resonances
Exploration of commonalities between parental claims for lesbian co-mothers and other contexts in which intention is a key aspect to family formation for (mostly) heterosexual families: in particular, surrogacy and pre-birth disputes over embryos. Through a series of case studies the paper uses the lens of empathy to argue for social or non-genetic modes of parenthood connecting lesbian mothers and other ‘reproductive outsiders’.- Creator

Queering reproduction
Sociological analysis of lesbians' use of the medical fertility treatments. The author argues that reproduction has become a medicalized process for lesbians, who are transformed into fertility patients because of their sexual identities. She argues that this medicalization shapes queer subjectivities in both productive and troubling ways, destabilizing the assumed link between heterosexuality and parenthood while also reinforcing traditional ideals about motherhood and the imperative to reproduce. She explores questions about the legal rights of co-parents, concerns about the genetic risks of choosing an anonymous sperm donor, and the ways decisions to become parents affect sexual and political identities.- Creator
