The role of Balinese culture in explaining inconsistencies between fertility intentions and reproductive outcomes -- Sexual decision-making and African women -- Women's partner relationships and reproductive and sexual health in Lusaka, Zambia -- The role of premarital empowerment in delaying marriage and first pregnancy in urban India -- How does fertility decline influence gender equality? Evidence from Tamil Nadu, India -- Household decision-making and contraceptive use among women ages 35-49 years in 24 sub-Saharan African countries -- Linking women to services: Mobile Monitor for Quality of Maternal Care (MOM-QC) in India -- Getting what you really want in labor: Women's experience of agency during childbirth -- Providing prenatal care and STI prevention to pregnant women through a mobile clinic project in India -- Vaginal birth after cesarean: informed choice and a source of empowerment among black women in the U.S -- Reframing the way we think about teenage motherhood -- "Sickness of shame": investigating challenges and resiliency amongst women living with obstetric fistula in Kenya -- Experiences of Chilean women with the criminalization of abortion -- Stigma as a factor in abortion legality and reproductive morbidity. - Abortion as empowerment: Reproductive rights activism in a context of illegality -- Claiming the abortion narrative: a qualitative exploration of mainstream and social media reflections on abortion -- Women's reproductive autonomy and engaging men on termination of pregnancy in Zambia and Uganda -- Women and development: A critical examination of the Sustainable Development Goals -- The promise of cash-incentive programs for improving reproductive health of marginalized women -- The critical role of education in sexual behavior and reproductive life planning for young women in Kenya -- Multilevel influences of women's education on vulnerability to HIV in two Caribbean countries -- Education and Fertility in Egypt: The Role of Women's Empowerment.

This expansive survey spotlights pervasive issues affecting girls' and women's sexual and reproductive health across the lifecourse. Research from diverse countries around the world analyzes the complex relationships among biological, psychological, sociocultural, and economic issues--particularly in terms of inequities--as they shape women's lives. Major challenges and possibilities for intervention are examined in their national context and with their global implications, including child marriage/motherhood, reproductive care and access, fertility, childbearing, contraception, abortion, HIV/STIs, gender-based violence, sexual pleasure, and menopause. In these forceful dispatches, a consistent human rights perspective emphasizes women's control, autonomy, and agency in all stages of their lives. A sampling of topics covered: Girl child marriage: a persistent global women's health and human rights violation Investigating challenges and resilience among women living with obstetric fistula in Kenya A qualitative exploration of mainstream and social media reflections on abortion A continuum of severity of sexual intimate partner violence among black women in the United States Economic empowerment to improve sexual and reproductive health among women and girls Summarizing an interdisciplinary field on research and practical levels, Global Perspectives on Women's Sexual and Reproductive Health Across the Lifecourse will be an invaluable text for undergraduate and graduate courses in a wide range of fields, including public health, global health, women's studies, sociology, anthropology, gender studies, and human rights.
