Questions of Conscience -- Conclusion -- Appendix: Core Cases -- Notes -- Bibliography -- IndexBased on years of careful ethnographic fieldwork in Hanoi, Haunting Images offers a frank and compassionate account of the moral quandaries that accompany innovations in biomedical technology. At the center of the book are case studies of thirty pregnant women whose fetuses were labeled "abnormal" after an ultrasound examination. By following these women and their relatives through painful processes of reproductive decision making, Tine M. Gammeltoft offers intimate ethnographic insights into everyday life in contemporary Vietnam and a sophisticated theoretical exploration of how subjectivities are forged in the face of moral assessments and demands.Across the globe, ultrasonography and other technologies for prenatal screening offer prospective parents new information and present them with agonizing decisions never faced in the past. For anthropologists, this diagnostic capability raises important questions about individuality and collectivity, responsibility and choice. Arguing for more sustained anthropological attention to human quests for belonging, Haunting Images addresses existential questions of love and loss that concern us all.AbortionMoral and ethical aspectsVietnamAbortionSocial aspectsVietnamabnormal.babies.belonging.biology.biomedical technology.case studies.children.contemporary vietnam.diagnostic capability.ethnographic fieldwork.fetus.gender studies.global medicine.hanoi.kinship.love and loss.medical innovations.moral assessments.morality.motherhood.parenthood.political.pregnancy.pregnant women.prenatal screening.prospective parents.questions of belonging.reproductive decision making.technology.ultrasonography.ultrasound examination.vietnam.vietnamese mothers.vietnamese women.AbortionMoral and ethical aspectsAbortionSocial aspects179.7/609597Gammeltoft Tine M1695965MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910824526903321Haunting images4075565UNINA02167nam0 22003973i 450 RML046129520251003044341.0978883623022820230109d2020 ||||0itac50 baitaitz01i xxxe z01nz01ncRDAcarrierBiochimica clinica e medicina di laboratorioMarcello Ciaccio, Giuseppe Lippi3. edNapoliEdiSES2020XXVI, 609 p.ill.27 cmBiochimica clinica e medicina di laboratorioUSM2011268CFIV1802091823704Biologia molecolareFIRCFIC004350EBiochimicaFIRPUVC014075E574.19296BIOCHIMICA.
