Adverse Effects: Women and the Pharmaceutical Industry

By Kathleen McDonnell

A global perspective on women and pharmaceuticals, with articles from India, the Philippines, Canada, the Netherlands, and the United States. "This valuable anthology highlights the dangers women face from a powerful global drug industry that recognizes neither boundaries nor ordinary ethics. Equally important, Adverse Effects gives us a glimpse of what a more caring, woman-oriented health system would look like, both in the Third World and in the industrialized countries. Adverse Effects is essential reading for health activists everywhere." - Barbara Ehrenreich, author and women's health advocate
