"Feminism travels, and Our Bodies, Ourselves is today the most transnational effort of women's health movements. In this theoretically sophisticated book that I have yearned for, Kathy Davis offers history and an assessment of Our Bodies, Ourselves as a multi-sited epistemological project, and she brilliantly reveals quite hopeful implications for transnational feminist theory. A politically grounded analysis of how Western feminism can become 'de-centered' through practice. Brava!"--Adele E.

Synopsis
The story of how the feminist classic Our Bodies, Ourselves has been adapted and reworked by women of different cultures around the world., The book Our Bodies, Ourselves has sold more than four million copies, gone through six revisions, and inspired more than twenty foreign editions. For more than thirty-five years, the lively, accessible manual on womens health has validated womens authority over their bodies and their own experiences as resources for challenging medical dogma. Within the United States, it has influenced health care policies, energized the reproductive rights movement, and stimulated medical research on womens health. At the same time, it has had a whole life outside the United States. From its inception, the book has been taken up, translated, and adapted by women around the globe. In The Making of Our Bodies, Ourselves, Kathy Davis tells the story of this feminist classic, connecting its history in the United States with its many varied lives abroad. Davis interviewed members of the Boston Womens Health Book Collective, the group of women who created Our Bodies, Ourselves, as well as readers and translators. She draws on those interviews, archival research, and analyses of the various editions of the book to describe how it has changed since it first appeared as an underground stencil in 1970. Material has been added and removed in response to changes in medicine and healthcare, readers feedback, and a growing concern with differences among women, especially around issues of class, race, and sexuality. Women from Latin America, Egypt, Thailand, China, Eastern Europe, Francophone Africa, and many other countries and regions have translated Our Bodies, Ourselves. In some instances, they have adapted its contents to make the information accessible and relevant to women of their respective cultures, and inothers they have developed new publications inspired by the book. This processof transforming an America, The book "Our Bodies, Ourselves" is a feminist success story. Selling more than four million copies since its debut in 1970, it has challenged medical dogmas about women's bodies and sexuality, shaped health care policies, energized the reproductive rights movement, and stimulated medical research on women's health. The book has influenced how generations of U.S. women feel about their bodies and health. "Our Bodies, Ourselves" has also had a whole life outside the United States. It has been taken up, translated, and adapted by women across the globe, inspiring more than thirty foreign language editions. Kathy Davis tells the story of this remarkable book's global circulation. Based on interviews with members of the Boston Women's Health Book Collective, the group of women who created "Our Bodies, Ourselves," as well as responses to the book from readers, and discussions with translators from Latin America, Egypt, Thailand, China, Eastern Europe, Francophone Africa, and many other countries and regions, Davis shows why "Our Bodies, Ourselves" could never have been so influential if it had been just a popular manual on women's health. It was precisely the book's distinctive epistemology, inviting women to use their own experiences as resources for producing situated, critical knowledge about their bodies and health, that allowed the book to speak to so many women within and outside the United States. Davis provides a grounded analysis of how feminist knowledge and political practice actually travel, and she shows how the process of transforming "Our Bodies, Ourselves" offers a glimpse of a truly transnational feminism, one that joins the acknowledgment of difference and diversityamong women in different locations with critical reflexivity and political empowerment., The book Our Bodies, Ourselves is a feminist success story.
