Summary This book shines a light on the way in which risk -- in and beyond childbirth -- is highly contextual, and the way in which risk-management strategies can be understood as socially and materially constructed. Nadia von Benzon is Lecturer in Human Geography at Lancaster University, UK. She researches children and mothers, and has published on topics as diverse as access to outdoor green space, disability, home education, historic child migration and Victorian Reformatory Farms. Rebecca Whittle is a scholar and activist whose work centres on care and emotional and relational geographies. She has worked across a number of fields including food, flooding, energy and children and family life. Participatory action research and ecofeminism are key influences in her research and teaching. Jo Hickman-Dunne is a social geographer and Research Fellow at the University of Manchester, UK. Her research interests span youth development and engagement in informal education, as well as advocating for research approaches that support and champion youth voice. She is an author in the edited book Unfamiliar Landscapes: Young People and Diverse Outdoor Experiences (Palgrave Macmillan, 2021).
