Along the way, she finds a fractured industry a profit-driven field of medicine that thrives on dueling messages of hope and fear as people gamble everything for a chance at a baby.

So why has the chicken industry evolved in the way that it has? What’s been driving the price increases in eggs and meat? And what does it all say about things like inflation, the labor market and the nature of American capitalism?
