'A gripping exploration of the science of the uterus, the politics of medicine and the future of reproductive freedom' New Statesman

Can the uterus control conception?
Are periods?
Will it ever be possible for a fetus to grow outside the human body?
What does all this mean for human rights?

Written with wisdom, warmth and nuance, and combining the author's years of experience as a midwife with medical history, scientific discovery and journalistic inquiry, Womb is an extraordinary exploration of a woefully under-researched and misunderstood organ.

'It will change the way you think about bodies for ever' Rachel Clarke

'An excellent guide to a misunderstood marvel' Observer

'Humane, intelligent but accessible, and full of fascinating insights' Rhiannon Lucy Coslett, Guardian
