Most Americans assume that shared genes or blood relationships provide the strongest basis for family. What can adoption tell us about this widespread belief and American kinship in general? Blue-Ribbon Babies and Labors of Love examines the ways class, gender, and race shape public and private adoption in the United States. Christine Ward Gailey analyzes the controversies surrounding international, public, and transracial adoption, and how the political and economic dynamics that shape adoption policies and practices affect the lives of people in the adoption nexus: adopters, adoptees, birth parents, and agents within and across borders. Interviews with white and African-American adopters, adoption social workers, and adoption lawyers, combined with her long-term participant-observation in adoptive communities, inform her analysis of how adopters' beliefs parallel or diverge from the dominant assumptions about kinship and family. Gailey demonstrates that the ways adoptive parents speak about their children vary across hierarchies of race, class, and gender. She shows that adopters' notions about their children's backgrounds and early experiences, as well as their own "family values," influence child rearing practices. Her extensive interviews with 131 adopters reveal profoundly different practices of kinship in the United States today. Moving beyond the ideology of "blood is thicker than water," Gailey presents a new way of viewing kinship and family formation, suitable to times of rapid social and cultural change.

In modern pediatric practice, gender matters. From the pink-and-blue striped receiving blankets used to swaddle newborns, to the development of sex-specific nutrition plans based on societal expectations of the stature of children, a gendered culture permeates pediatrics and children’s health throughout the twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. This book provides a look at how gender has served as one of the frameworks for pediatric care in the U.S. since the specialty’s inception. Pink and Blue deploys gender—often in concert with class and race—as the central critical lens for understanding the function of pediatrics as a cultural and social project in modern U.S. history.
Dorinda Bush Jones started keeping a journal to share her struggles of being a terminal “blue baby” with her son and grandchildren. Born with four serious heart defects before open heart surgery was a reality, she spent much of her time alone, unable to keep up with other children. She often joined her parents at church, where she learned to rely on God during her lonely times. During the summer of her eleventh year, she began to see how God was steering the direction of her life to bring her to the place where she could go from being terminal to being here to tell her story. While her journal was originally meant for her family, she realized that people beyond her inner circle wanted to hear about how she was miraculously healed when she mentioned her writing during her various visits to doctors’ offices. In this memoir, she reveals to the world how God, who knew all about her, kept her alive and led her to doctors who were learning, trying out new inventions, machinery, and surgical techniques, including stopped-heart surgery.
