When 'Baby Hunger' was published in 2001, it unleashed a storm of controversy. Celebrated and denounced, it triggered an intense debate about how women can manage the demands of their careers with their desire for children.
The book demonstrates that, despite the miracles of modern medicine, the age-old business of having babies still eludes large numbers of accomplished women: they can be playwrights, politicians and chief executives but, increasingly, they are not mothers.
'Baby Hunger' examines why this is and what can be done about it. Sylvia Ann Hewlett's book is not a counsel of despair. It is essential reading for any woman contemplating a future that includes both a career and children.
