Reviews

"""Paugh (Oxford) upends conventional interpretations of the motivations for the abolition of the Atlantic slave trade....This is an important book that should be read by students and scholars interested in the history of slavery and abolition, British imperial history, Caribbean/Atlantic history, and women's history....Highly recommended.""--CHOICE ""Contemporary demographers will find in The Politics of Reproduction an insightful early study of the difficulties states encounter when attempting to legislate a reproduction regime that meets the needs of their production regime.""--Population and Development Review"
