Title: SANCTIONING PREGNANCY: A PSYCHOLOGICAL PERSPECTIVE ON THE PARADOXES AND CULTURE OF RESEARCH
Description: "Sanctioning Pregnancy offers a critique of socio-cultural constructions of pregnancy and the ways in which it is represented in contemporary culture. It examines the common myths which exist about diet, exercise and work in pregnancy, alongside notions or risk and media portrayals of pregnant women." "Different theoretical standpoints are critically examined, including a medico-scientific model, feminist perspectives and bio-psycho-social and psychodynamic approaches."--BOOK JACKET.
