Advances in technology and genetic engineering have made inevitable a future in which the conception, gestation, and birth of human life will be subcontracted away from actual humans. MATERNITY LEAVE: NONE OF WOMEN BORN questions what it means to be of women born, when life actually begins, and explores structures that might assume the role of “mother” as society progresses.
