Breastfeeding: New Anthropological Approaches unites sociocultural,
biological, and archaeological anthropological scholarship to spark
new conversations and research about breastfeeding. While
breastfeeding has become the subject of intense debate in many
settings, anthropological perspectives have played a limited role
in these conversations. The present volume seeks to broaden
discussions around breastfeeding by showcasing fresh insights
gleaned from an array of theoretical and methodological approaches,
which are grounded in the close study of people across the globe.
Drawing on case studies and analyses of key issues in the field,
the book highlights the power of anthropological research to
illuminate the evolutionary, historical, biological, and
sociocultural context of the complex, lived experience of
breastfeeding. By bringing together researchers across three
anthropological subfields, the volume seeks to produce
transformative knowledge about human lactation, breastfeeding, and
human milk. This book is a key resource for scholars of medical and
biological anthropology, evolutionary biology, bioarchaeology,
sociocultural anthropology, and human development. Lactation
professionals and peer supporters, midwives, and others who support
infant feeding will find the book an essential read.
