The Menopause IndustryA Guide to Medicine's 'Discovery' of the Mid-Life WomanSANDRA CONEY |
| Published in four countries and into several reprints this book has been called ‘a must read’. The information in this book is important and Sandra Coney’s incisive critique of the use of HRT should have been listened to years ago. It is groundbreaking and gives details on the benefits and risks of medical intervention in ‘the mid-life woman’. Sandra Coney argues that healthy mid-life women are being deliberately targeted by vested interests with products and services to sell. In the process the normal event of menopause is being redefined as a health hazard which needs to be treated. ‘An antidote to the flood of information extolling HRT … a must read for women of all ages.’ —Jill Farrar, New Woman ‘…it would be difficult to find a more articulate presentation and analysis of the questions.’ —Douglas Ormrod, GP News |
