The Ethics and Politics of Breastfeeding: Power, Pleasure, Poetics

"The Ethics and Politics of Breastfeeding takes a scholarly approach to the topic of breastfeeding by drawing on the respective works of Foucault, Levinas, and Irigaray. In doing so, Robyn Lee critiques prevailing discourses to provide a thought-provoking and timely discussion surrounding cultural politics."

Rhonda M. Shaw, School of Social and Cultural Studies, Victoria University of Wellington

"Robyn Lee is very well acquainted with writings on contemporary breastfeeding practices and policy. A significant contribution of this book is that she brings together a vast range of materials in a skilled and artful analysis that raises important questions for breastfeeding scholars."
