Perspectives Press

Welcome to Perspectives Press

Since 1982 we and our authors have been providing award-winning books, articles, and workshops for consumers and for medical, mental health, counseling and allied professionals on infertility, reproductive health and alternative family building—from adoption to collaborative reproduction to fostering to child-free living. More about us

Let us show you our books for adults on infertility, treatment, reproductive health, childfree living, adoption, and parenting as well as our books for children on adoption and donor insemination. Here's a listing of our entire catalog, alphabetically by title.

The authors of Perspectives Press' books are people whose lives—professional and personal—have been touched by the issues to which they speak and about which we publish: reproductive health and alternative family building.

Here you'll find excerpts from our books, as well as other articles on timely and sometimes provocative issues in infertility, adoption, and reproductive health.

Several of the Perspectives Press authors provide workshops that those interested in infertility, adoption, and interim care will find valuable. Their public presentations are listed here.

Sam's Sister

"When I was five, something special happened," begins this story. And indeed it did: when Rosa was five her mother had a baby for whom she planned an open adoption. Today over 60% of women planning an adoption are already parenting at least one child. Until now, there have been no tools to help these mothers explain adoption to their older children. Sam's Sister will change all that. It follows six-year-old Rosa as she comes to understand her mother's dilemma, learns about adoption, experiences his birth and placement with Sarah and Joe, and they begin an open adoption together. The illustrations of Dawn Majewski bring these characters to life. 32 pages. ISBN 0-944934-30-7, hardcover, $18.00
