A captivating mixture of memoir, stories from the consulting room, history and science, 'The Brink of Being' is a much-needed, comprehensive look at an experience that is unfortunately all too common (one in four pregnancies end in miscarriage), and yet still considered taboo. This book by Julia Bueno - a psychotherapist who has herself suffered multiple miscarriages and has been a trustee and volunteer for the Miscarriage Association - will engage with questions around how we respond to women's bodies and reproductive health, our attitudes to birth and death, and how both technology and science impact upon these questions too.
