- Double-weighted statement
- This book should be double-weighted to reflect the fact that it is the result of sustained research and writing effort on a sensitive issue. A 236-page monograph, the book is based on 18 months’ ethnographic research among Qatari women as well as those around them. However, it also benefits from the author’s broader and ongoing research on miscarriage, including investigations in other contexts. The book is a layered representation in which the lens of individual experiences of miscarriage is used to explore reproductive politics and the paradoxes of modernity in Qatar.
