About this ebook
Regeneration: Made in China is about loss and about the human ability to survive and give meaning and substance to the unjustifiable and irremissible workings of chance. It is also a tribute to those Chinese women forced, by tradition or government, to give up their daughters. It is my gift to them for defying unpardonable rules and laws and giving their girls the potential to be found, rescued, protected and cherished. This book is also a memorial to my daughter Irma, who planted and cultivated the idea of adoption in our minds months before she was killed.
