Outsourcing the Womb: Race, Class, and Gestational Surrogacy in a Global Market by France Winddance Twine

This is a great introductory primer for the gestational surrogacy industry (though a touch more editing wouldn’t go amiss). It’s a very quick overview using a comparative analysis of state (national) regulatory regimes through case studies of the major industry hubs. I wish it had provided a map, because the flow of clientele and wealth in this industry would be a shocking look at global commodity chains and perceptions/meaning of wealth.
Highly recommend if you think you have fixed opinions on surrogacy, reproduction, or motherhood. You don’t know what you think you know.
Highly recommend if you know nothing about the surrogacy and commercial reproduction industry. It’s accessibly written and provides a glossary of terms and concepts for easy reference in the back.
