A pioneer of modern motherhood studies, Andrea O'Reilly explores
motherhood's current representation and practice, considering
developments that were unimaginable decades ago: the Internet,
interracial surrogacy, raising transchildren, male mothering,
intensive mothering, queer parenting, the applications of new
biotechnologies, and mothering in the post-9/11 era. Her work pulls
together a range of disciplines and themes in motherhood studies.
She confronts the effects of globalization, HIV/AIDS, welfare
reform, politicians as mothers, third wave feminism, and the
evolving motherhood movement, and she incorporates Chicana,
African-American, Canadian, Muslim, queer, low-income, trans, and
lesbian perspectives.
