Product Information
From the bestselling author of Nickel and Dimed and a former editor in chief Mother Jones , this women's history classic brilliantly uncovers the constraints imposed on women in the name of science. Since the nineteenth century, professionals have been invoking scientific expertise to prescribe what women should do for their own good. Among the experts' diagnoses and remedies: menstruation was an illness requiring seclusion; pregnancy, a disabling condition; and higher education, a threat to long-term health of the uterus. From clitoridectomies to tame women's behavior in the nineteenth century to the censure of a generation of mothers as castrators in the 1950s, doctors have not hesitated to intervene in women's sexual, emotional, and maternal lives. Even domesticity, the most popular prescription for a safe environment for women, spawned legions of "scientific" experts. Barbara Ehrenreich and Deirdre English has never lost faith in science itself, but insist that we hold those who interpret it to higher standards. Women are entering the medical and scientific professions in greater numbers but as recent research shows, experts continue to use pseudoscience to tell women how to live. For Her Own Good provides today's readers with an indispensable dose of informed skepticism.

"A splendidly bold and readable review of medical, psychological and social theory since the industrial revolution."-- The Guardian (London) "A landmark work: It changes everything one believed before about doctors, scientists, and all other kinds of patriarchal experts. The most important work on women since The Feminine Mystique ."--Claudia Dreifus, author of Seizing Our Bodies, The Politics of Women's Health Care " For Her Own Good gives us a perspective on female history, the history of American medicine and psychology, and the history of childhood, unlike any we have had. I have read it with mounting intellectual excitement, underlining, marking pages, arguing form start to finish with its authors in my head. It is humanly and theoretically fascinating, written with clarity, wit, and verve and with a deep concern for the future."--Adrienne Rich " For Her Own Good . . . uses rationality informed by moral insight to meet the 'experts' head-on."-- The Boston Globe, "A splendidly bold and readable review of medical, psychological and social theory since the industrial revolution."-- The Guardian (London) "A landmark work: It changes everything one believed before about doctors, scientists, and all other kinds of patriarchal experts.

Item was new, as described. Seller was responsive when contacted about shipping delay.
But the item took 16 days(!) to arrive, 7 days from purchase (May 01) until shipped
(May 07), and another 9 days until delivery (May16). The purchase was intended as
a Mother's Day gift based on seller's estimated delivery of Sat. May 04 - Thurs. May 09
and ended up 5 days late. Disappointing!
