Weaving together how-to manual, activist memoir, and manifesto, The Doulas is an "honest, raw, and charged" treatise on full-spectrum doula care. (Rewire)

As more feminist conversation migrates online, the activist providers of the Doula Project remain focused on life's physically intimate relationships: between caregivers and patients, parents and pregnancy, individuals and their own bodies. They are committed to supporting a pregnancy no matter the outcome-whether it results in birth, abortion, miscarriage, or adoption--and to facing the question of choice head-on.

In this eye-opening book, Doula Project founders Mary Mahoney and Lauren Mitchell present the history, philosophy, and practices of these caregivers, contextualizing the doula movement within the larger scope of pregnancy care and reproductive rights. They illustrate how, through their unique hands-on activism, full-spectrum doulas provide tangible support for those confronting life, death, and the sticky in-between.
