Women who opt not to be mothers are frequently warned that they will regret their decision later in life, yet we rarely talk about the possibility that the opposite might also be true—that women who have children might regret it. Drawing on years of research interviewing women from a variety of socioeconomic, educational, and professional backgrounds, sociologist Orna Donath treats regret as a feminist issue: as regret marks the road not taken, we need to consider whether alternative paths for women currently are blocked off. She asks that we pay attention to what is forbidden by rules governing motherhood, time, and emotion, including the cultural assumption that motherhood is a “natural” role for women—for the sake of all women, not just those who regret becoming mothers. If we are disturbed by the idea that a woman might regret becoming a mother, Donath says, our response should not be to silence and shame these women; rather, we need to ask honest and difficult questions about how society pushes women into motherhood and why those who reconsider it are still seen as a danger to the status quo. Groundbreaking, thoughtful, and provocative, this is an especially needed book in our current political climate, as women's reproductive rights continue to be at the forefront of national debates.

When Margaret Bendet is told to interview an Indian holy man, she thinks it’s just another assignment—but after speaking with him, she decides to accompany him back to his ashram, hoping to find enlightenment. In Learning to Eat Along the Way, Bendet enters a world that many have wondered about but few have seen: the milieu of a spiritual master. Subtle experiences prompt her to embark on this journey with “the swami,” as she calls the holy man, and to enter into the ashram—but once there, she deals with a host of psychological issues, including intense infatuation and life-threatening anorexia. “Each person comes to the ashram in order to receive something,” the swami tells her, “something to take with you when you leave—something you can eat along the way.” Bendet finds this to be truer than she could have imagined. Clear-eyed and candid, Learning to Eat Along the Way is an honest and often surprising account of one woman’s experience with spiritual work.

Practical, upbeat, humorous—yet realistic—help for new mothers Elizabeth Wright became aware of the need for this book shortly after giving birth to her first child. Faced with the reality of having a baby in her home, she started frantically reading through the standard works on childraising. She was surprised to learn that while these books provide a wealth of information on a baby’s development and growth, they do precious little to help the new mother cope with her new life. “Obviously,” she writes, “the people who wrote these books had never been in the trenches—at home taking care of Baby. I needed to know what to do when my baby curled up like a pillbug in her car seat and screamed herself maroon. I needed a book written by a mother who had not yet achieved complete amnesia about childbirth and the first year of motherhood.” The New Mother’s Survival Guide will be a beacon and a friend for all new mothers who are looking for valuable information based on real-life experience.
