DESCRIPTION:$10 ($5 students) at the door\n\npresented by Berkeley Arts & Letters\n\nIn 
 a groundbreaking work of investigative journalism, the author of the New 
 York Times bestsellerKingdom Coming exposes the global war on women’s 
 reproductive rights and its disastrous and unreported consequences for the 
 future of global development. As networks of religious fundamentalists, 
 feminists, and bureaucrats struggle to remake sexual and childbearing norms 
 worldwide, the battle to control women’s bodies has become a high-stakes 
 enterprise. The Means of Reproduction travels through four continents, 
 examining issues such as abortion, female circumcision, and Asia’s 
 missing girls to show how the battle has been globalized and how, too 
 often, the United States has joined sworn enemies such as Iran and Sudan in 
 an axis of repression. Reporting with unique insight from both the rarefied 
 realm of international policy and from individual women’s lives, Goldberg 
 elucidates the economic, demographic, and health consequences of women’s 
 oppression, and shows how women, strengthened by a solidarity that 
 transcends borders, are fighting for freedom. \n\nMichelle Goldberg is an 
 investigative journalist. A former senior writer at Salon.com, Goldberg has 
 written for Glamour, The New Republic, Rolling Stone, The Guardian (UK), 
 and has taught at New York University’s Graduate School of Journalism. 
 The Means of Reproduction won the 2008 J. Anthony Lukas Work-in-Progress 
 Award.\n\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2009/03/28/18584198.php
