Abstract
With this book, O’Brien offers compelling answers to some of the most pressing questions confronting the field of reproductive history and opens new avenues of investigation about the relationship between theology and secular society. She rightfully re-centers Latin America, and Mexico, as a vanguard in the application and radicalization of theological ideas about fetal personhood, reproductive surgery, and gendered racialization. Surgery and salvation is absolutely essential reading for students of the Americas and for all those interested in women, reproduction, race, religion, and medicine – past and present.
