Incorporating the authentic voices and real-life experiences of
women, this ground-breaking book focuses on pregnancy and new
motherhood in UK prisons. The book delves critically and poignantly
into the criminal justice system's response to pregnant and new
mothers, shedding light on the tragedies of stillborn babies and
the deaths of traumatised mothers in prison. Based on lived
realities, it passionately argues the case for enhancing the
experiences of pregnant and new mothers involved with the criminal
justice system. Aiming to catalyse policy and practice, the book is
key reading for criminology and midwifery students and researchers
as well as policy makers and practitioners.
