Description

Product Description The Journey of Becoming a Mother Among Women in Northern Thailand is the first book-length study of childbearing and motherhood in Thailand. Informed by both anthropology and women's studies, Pranee Liamputtong draws sharp distinctions between the practices of the East and those of the West. Covering virtually every aspect of childbirth and upbringing, this book also examines how women try to adapt to changes - social, economical, and political - that affect their motherhood and reproduction.This very personal and accessible book is an excellent intercultural study of women and health, useful to undergraduate as well as graduate students of Women's Studies, Public Health, and Anthropology. Review A significant contribution to the field, this book should be required reading for health practitioners and policy makers in Thailand and elsewhere.--Miriam Grant, University of Calgary The Journey of Becoming a Mother Among Women in Northern Thailand contributes to understanding how the global goals of lowering mother and child mortality and morbidity can be met by going beyond statistics and revealing the complexity of women's experiences.--Wilfreda Thurston, University of Calgary About the Author Pranee Liamputtong is professor of public health at Latrobe University.
