- Description
- This book assesses the state of women’s healthcare today by analyzing popular media representations—television, print newspapers, websites, advertisements, blogs, and memoirs—in order to understand the ways in which breast cancer, postpartum depression, and cervical cancer are discussed in American public life. This identity defuses feminist notions of collective empowerment and social change by drawing from both postfeminist and neoliberal ideologies. The woman is vulnerable because of her very femininity and is empowered not to change the world, but to choose from among a limited set of medical treatments. The media’s depiction of the vulnerable empowered woman’s relationship with biomedicine promotes traditional gender roles and affirms women’s unquestioning reliance on medical science for empowerment.

- Description
- This publication explores the factors responsible for the huge number of preventable maternal deaths that continue to occur each year. It documents the range of problems - from personal fatalism, through social customs, to the shortcomings of the health services - that must be understood if the special and long-neglected health needs of women are to receive appropriate attention. . .The first chapter illustrates the dimensions of the problem through a review of available data on death rates and risks associated with childbearing. Numerous case histories and examples from field research are then used to explore the various social, cultural, and political factors which together determine the status of women, their health, fertility, and health-seeking behaviour. Questions of causes and prevention are included.
