DES Daughters: Embodied Knowledge, and the Transformation of Women's Health Politics
by Susan E. BellFrom the 1940s to the 1970s, millions of women were exposed prenatally to the synthetic estrogen DES, a "wonder drug" intended to prevent miscarriages. However, DES actually had damaging consequences for the women born from DES mothers. The "DES daughters" as they are known, were found to have a rare form of vaginal cancer or were infertile. They were also at risk for miscarriages, stillbirths, and ectopic pregnancies. In DES Daughters, Susan Bell recounts the experiences of this generation of "victims. " In moving, heartfelt narratives, she presents the voices of those women who developed cancer, those who were cancer-free but have concerns about becoming pregnant, and those who suffered other medical and/or reproductive difficulties. Bell examines the hierarchy of knowledge and power of scientists, doctors, and daughters, tracing the emergence of a feminist health movement. The "embodied knowledge" of these DES daughters prompted them to become advocates and form a social movement that challenged reproductive medical knowledge specifically, but also the politics of women's health in general. Bell's important book chronicles the history and future of these grassroots activists born out of illness, suffering, and uncertainty.

by Cristina Mesquita De OliveiraTUDO O QUE PRECISA DE SABER PARA DESCOMPLICAR A MENOPAUSA Da presidente da VIDAs - Associação Portuguesa de Menopausa, surge um livro completo sobre Menopausa. Aqui encontra toda a informação de que precisa, de forma simples e directa, para tornar esta etapa da sua vida num processo emocionante e positivo. Menopausa não é doença. É, somente, uma etapa na vida da mulher, tal como a puberdade. No entanto, continua a ser alvo de preconceitos e de muita informação contraditória. Stress e exaustão, mudanças de humor, alterações no padrão de sono, confusão mental, baixa líbido, ondas de calor, suores noturnos e aumento de peso são alguns dos efeitos do processo de menopausa. Uma etapa de vida desafiante, que pode parecer solitária, mas não tem de ser assim! Com este livro, Cristina Mesquita De Oliveira, presidente da Associação Portuguesa de Menopausa, oferece conhecimento, combatendo mitos e mal-entendidos, para ajudar todas as mulheres a transformarem esse momento desafiante num processo emocionante e positivo. · Descubra o que acontece ao seu corpo durante as três fases do processo de menopausa; · Saiba o que esperar, os efeitos mais comuns, porque se manifestam e como lidar com eles; · Obtenha orientação abrangente sobre a variedade de tratamentos disponíveis, incluindo medicina tradicional e complementar. Deixe a menopausa das suas mãe e avós para trás e viva sem medos a menopausa do século XXI! «A presente obra vem suprir uma falha de informação naquela que é a literatura direccionada para a protagonista da Menopausa: a mulher em geral. Trata-se de um retrato completo sobre a Menopausa, no qual não falta até um enquadramento sobre a Menopausa durante a pandemia da covid-19.Na primeira pessoa, por ser escrito por uma mulher em processo de Menopausa, que por ser atenta a si e à sua saúde notou alterações e quis informar-se e informar sobre elas. Actualizado à mulher do séc. xxi! Com um discurso descomplicado, respeitador e abrangente de todos os tipos de contextos nos quais a Menopausa se pode desenrolar.» Maria Natália Mendes, in Prefácio «Nesta obra, autêntico serviço público, temos uma mulher, informada, a falar abertamente — muitas vezes na primeira pessoa — sem tabus ou receios de julgamento. Mostra-nos uma visão global da menopausa, afastando a imagem do trágico e do patológico. Explica que a menopausa não começa num dia, mas acontece, a ritmos diferentes, com ou sem sintomas. Não se cura, mas tratam-se os sintomas, se necessário. Que a solução não são sempre fármacos e que estes não condenam inexoravelmente a um cancro da mama ou a um tromboembolismo. Tudo isto, ao longo de uma conversa, fundamentada na ciência, mas tornada prática e útil. Poderia ser um diálogo entre amigas, com a vantagem de uma delas ter feito o trabalho de casa.» Pedro Vieira Baptista, in Prefácio
DESERT TERROIR: Exploring the Unique Flavors and Sundry Places of the Borderlands (Ellen and Edward Randall Series)
by Gary Paul NabhanWhy does food taste better when you know where it comes from? Because history-ecological, cultural, even personal-flavors every bite we eat. Whether it's the volatile chemical compounds that a plant absorbs from the soil or the stories and memories of places that are evoked by taste, layers of flavor await those willing to delve into the roots of real food. In this landmark book, Gary Paul Nabhan takes us on a personal trip into the southwestern borderlands to discover the terroir-the "taste of the place"-that makes this desert so delicious. To savor the terroir of the borderlands, Nabhan presents a cornucopia of local foods-Mexican oregano, mesquite-flour tortillas, grass-fed beef, the popular Mexican dessert capirotada, and corvina (croaker or drum fish) among them-as well as food experiences that range from the foraging of Cabeza de Vaca and his shipwrecked companions to a modern-day camping expedition on the Rio Grande. Nabhan explores everything from the biochemical agents that create taste in these foods to their history and dispersion around the world. Through his field adventures and humorous stories, we learn why Mexican oregano is most potent when gathered at the most arid margins of its range-and why foods found in the remote regions of the borderlands have surprising connections to foods found by his ancestors in the deserts of the Mediterranean and the Middle East. By the end of his movable feast, Nabhan convinces us that the roots of this fascinating terroir must be anchored in our imaginations as well as in our shifting soils.
