Over the last one hundred years, depending on the latest prevailing advice, women have taken morphine, practiced Lamaze, relied on ultrasound images, sampled fertility drugs, and shopped at sperm banks. Here, the insatiably curious Randi Hutter Epstein journeys through history, fads, and fables, and to the fringe of science, where audacious researchers have gone to extreme measures to get healthy babies out of mothers. The result is an entertaining and enlightening celebration of human life.--From publisher description. 000342065 650_0 $$aChildbirth$$xHistory. 000342065 85200 $$bgen$$hRG651$$i.E67$$i2010 000342065 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:342065$$pGLOBAL_SET 000342065 980__ $$aBIB 000342065 980__ $$aBOOK
