Why read it?
1 author picked Eve as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Eve tackles the topic of ectogenesis – gestation outside the womb. From literature to bioethics to cutting-edge medical research, the book examines this complex topic in creative ways.

From Sydney's list on abortion and reproductive rights.
