Speaking of books which have made a difference...

I just picked up a copy of the (recently released?) "The *New* Our
Bodies / Ourselves" and found myself thinking back to the time I first
read the original, perhaps fifteen years ago.  On my drive to work this
morning, I passed a young woman, brunette locks blowing out the window,
cowhide gloves on the wheel of a Seattle Recycling truck, and felt an
enormous surge of pride.  We may have a long way to go, but damn, we've
done well so far...

I also recommend "Ourselves and Our Children" to any parent at any
stage of parenting.  Both are published by the Boston Womens' Health
Book Collective and are generally available.
