Fertility and Jewish Law: Feminist Perspectives on Orthodox Responsa Literature (Brandeis Series on Gender, Culture, Religion, and Law)
$9.40
Description
Book Synopsis: This book presents, from the perspective of feminist jurisprudence and feminist and liberal bioethics, a complete study of Jewish law (halakhah) on contemporary reproductive issues such as birth control, abortion, and assisted fertility. Irshai examines these issues to probe gender-based values that underlie the interpretations and determinations reached by modern practitioners of halakhah. Her primary goal is to tell, through common halakhic tools, a different halakhic story, one that takes account of the female narrative and its missing perspective.
