Measuring Mamma's Milk

"In Italy as in other Western societies, the medicalization of basic biological functions contributes to the loss of personal confidence in the care of the body. Measuring Mamma's Milk analyzes the medicalization of maternity through a study of breast-feeding practices over a century of changes in socioeconomic organization, family life, and health beliefs.". "Measuring Mamma's Milk will appeal to readers interested in Italy, fascism, and the care of young children as well as to scholars in medical and cultural anthropology, European history, history of medicine, and women's studies."--BOOK JACKET.
