Editors Cassidy and El Tom have put together a broad look at the modern and historical experience of breastfeeding. They consider not just the product and the process of breastfeeding but also the participants, including mothers, children, wet nurses, surrogates, and health care professionals. The collection takes an international perspective, focusing on South American countries, Middle Eastern Countries, and African countries as well as Europe and the US . Chapter notes, extensive bibliography. Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates and above.
Offering much more than a study of conceptual shifts over time, the various takes on the 'product' and 'process' of milk feeding as a reproductive and socio-political conduct make [this] book a fascinating read ... A great addition to undergraduate and postgraduate studies of reproductive care and maternal and infant health.
An essential collection of cross-cultural essays for anthropologists, sociologists, psychologists, and clinicians - really everyone working in mother and infant studies.
Cassidy and El Tom's Ethnographies of Breastfeeding offers an insightful anthropological examination of human milk. The authors consider human milk as a product, medicine and commodity - to be processed, shared and traded - and problematize contemporary global issues of human milk, touching upon classic anthropological themes of gender, economy, power and kinship.
The great thing about this book ... is its power, building on the strength of international global ethnographic evidence, to reconfigure debates about babies and human milk so that breastfeeding is no longer just about the imposition of obligations on individual women ... This book does not ignore this debate or this pressure - but rather it expands and reorganizes it
