This outstanding collection brings together a wide range of perspectives on the question of consent. Challenging, insightful, and stimulating, this book is required reading for anyone interested in understanding more about consent." Jonathan Herring, Professor of Law, University of Oxford, UK.
Nowhere is the gap between the theory of consent and its implementation in practice more obvious than in the context of reproductive rights (broadly defined). This multi-disciplinary collection, exploring multiple facets of that gap, makes a vital contribution to ensuring that it is closed. Alex Ruck Keene, Barrister, 39 Essex Chambers and Professor of Practice, Kings College London, UK.
This timely book unites important perspectives from multiple disciplines. It demonstrates the unquestionable importance of centring in our analysis of reproductive consent, the lived experiences of the people that do the reproducing. Elselijn Kingma, Sowerby Professor in Philosophy and Medicine, Kings College London, UK.
