Yesterday I followed a link on Feministing to a book project I think we should all consider participating in.
In the 1970s women were dissatisfied with the level of knowledge they were able to glean regarding their bodies. The medical books were mostly written by men as was the popular literature. Many women came together with the Boston Women's Health Collective and contributed to a project that produced the book , Our Bodies, Ourselves.
