"Transcending Borders offers a riveting collection of essays that fully deliver on the editors'' commitment to provide a multidisciplinary investigation of abortion practices which is attuned to localized contexts while also examining the global power structures within which women''s lived experiences are embedded. Traversing time and place, they provide richly evocative and fine-grained analyses of reproductive struggles. Brilliantly chosen for their diversity and specificity, the essays are far more than the sum of their parts as the individual contestations are thematically linked by a deeply satisfying reproductive justice framework." (Shoshanna Ehrlich, University of Massachusetts, Boston, USA)

"Exploring historical and contemporary issues in abortion and abortion politics from a range of disciplinary perspectives, Transcending Borders offers new transnational and transformative insights into the study of abortion. For all concerned with global and transnational inequalities, women''s rights, and reproductive justice, this diverse and engaging collection will be required reading." (Lori Chambers, Lakehead University, USA)
