Books Descriptions
?My work offers a window into the darkest and lightest corners of
people?s lives, into the extremes of human experience,? writes Dr. Chavi
Eve Karkowsky in 'HIGH RISK' her timely and unflinching account of
working in maternal-fetal medicine?that branch of medicine that concerns
high-risk pregnancies. Whether offering insight into the rise in home
births, the alarming rise in America?s maternal mortality rate, or the
history of involuntary sterilization, Karkowsky offers a window into all
that pregnancy, labor, and birth can entail?birth and joy, but also
challenge and loss?illustrating the complexity of reproductive life and the
systems that surround it. With historical insight and journalistic verve,
Karkowsky unpacks what is involved for women, for a family, and for us as
a society; and explores what?s at risk when these aspects of medicine
remain clouded in mystery and misinformation.RUNNING TIME ? 8hrs.
